Preparation
Step 1
Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil; brush lightly with vegetable oil. Place salmon steaks on prepared baking sheet. Whisk miso, mirin, vinegar, ginger, and sesame oil in a small bowl to blend. Spread half the miso mixture over salmon steaks; season lightly with salt. Turn salmon steaks over and spread with remaining miso mixture; season lightly with salt. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate at room temperature for at least 15 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 1 hour.
Step 2
Position an oven rack 6"–8"from broiler and preheat. Broil salmon, turning once, until golden brown and just opaque in center, 10–12 minutes total.
Step 3
Transfer salmon steaks to plates and serve with lime wedges.
