Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each), skin-on
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 4 heads baby bok choy, halved lengthwise
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • Cooked jasmine rice for serving

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger in a small bowl to make the glaze.

  2. 2

    Pat salmon fillets dry and season with a little black pepper. No extra salt is needed given the soy sauce.

  3. 3

    Heat vegetable oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon skin-side up and sear for 3 minutes until golden.

  4. 4

    Flip salmon, pour glaze over fillets, and transfer pan to a 400°F oven. Roast for 6-8 minutes until salmon is just cooked through and the glaze is sticky.

  5. 5

    While salmon roasts, heat a separate pan over high heat with a splash of oil. Add bok choy cut-side down and cook for 2 minutes. Add a splash of water, cover, and steam for 2 more minutes.

  6. 6

    Season bok choy with a drizzle of sesame oil and a pinch of salt.

  7. 7

    Serve salmon over jasmine rice with the bok choy alongside. Spoon any remaining pan glaze over the top and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
