Method
Rinse any ice glaze from Alaska salmon under cold water; pat dry with paper towel. Set oven to broil, with rack 4 to 5 inches from heating element. Line a shallow baking sheet or dish with aluminum foil; coat with nonstick spray. Distribute non-reserved onions and cilantro evenly on pan in 4 piles (the size of the salmon portions). Top each pile with 2 lemon slices. Combine sesame oil and ginger; spoon about 1 teaspoon of mixture over each pair of lemon slices. Top with salmon portions. Add sake and soy sauce to remaining oil mixture; blend and spoon over salmon portions. Broil until salmon is nicely browned, about 8 minutes. Turn off broiler; set oven to 375 degrees F. Finish cooking salmon until just done and center flakes with a knife, about 7 to 8 minutes. Do not overcook. Serve garnished with reserved green onions.
