Combine the sauce ingredients and set aside. You will be using most of the sauce during the cooking process, reserving a small bit to brush over your salmon, or drizzle over any vegetables when serving.

Place the salmon filets on a cutting board and pat dry with a paper towel. Brush the top of the salmon liberally with the asian sauce. 

Heat a skillet to medium high heat, add the olive oil. When the skillet is hot add the salmon, skin side up to the skillet. Allow the fillet to cook about 3-4 minutes until a nice crust has formed on the fillet. Using tongs, carefully flip the salmon.

Brush the salmon generously with the sauce as it cooks. Cover the skillet and cook the salmon about 6 minutes after flipping, or until it flakes easily in the center.
