To Make The Red Hot Sesame Onion Dressing:
In a bowl of a food processor, place brown sugar, green, red, and yellow onions, vinegar, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, red pepper flakes and black pepper. Process 3 to 4 minutes. With the motor running, slowly add sesame oil.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare grill. Grill salmon long enough (about 5 minutes) to leave grill marks.
Transfer the salmon to an ovenproof pan. Pour 1-1/2 cups onion dressing over salmon and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake in oven 25 to 30 minutes, or until onion dressing bubbles and thickens.
