Ingredients

Seafood

  • • 1 1/2 lbs Salmon or steelhead trout

Produce

  • • 1 tsp Ginger
  • • 2 Gloves garlic
  • • 1 cup Riced broccoli

Condiments

  • • 2 tbsp Tamari or low-sodium soy sauce

Baking & Spices

  • • 1 tbsp Sesame seeds

Oils & Vinegars

  • • 2 1/2 tbsp Olive oil, extra-virgin

Other

  • • 1 1/2 tablespoons Sambal Oelek

Directions:

  1. Season the Salmon
    Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  2. Prepare the Marinade
    In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, Sriracha, sesame oil, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic until well combined.
  3. Marinate the Salmon
    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Let the salmon marinate for at least 15 minutes (up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator for a stronger flavor).
  4. Cook the Salmon
    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the salmon fillets, skin-side down, reserving any leftover marinade. Cook for 3-4 minutes, then carefully flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked to your liking.
  5. Add the Marinade (Optional)
    Pour any remaining marinade into the skillet and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, thickening slightly and coating the salmon.
  6. Garnish and Serve
    Remove the salmon from the skillet and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve immediately.
