Description
A delightful dish that combines rich flavors and a satisfying texture with perfectly glazed salmon and fluffy rice.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 3 tablespoons miso paste (white or red)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 4 cups cooked rice (white or brown)
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons sesame seeds (for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix the miso paste, soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil to create a smooth glaze.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place on the baking sheet, skin-side down. Season with salt and pepper, and bake for 12-15 minutes.
- While the salmon is baking, reheat the cooked rice if necessary. In serving bowls, place a scoop of rice and top with a salmon fillet. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
- For gluten-free, use tamari instead of soy sauce.
- For vegan, replace salmon with tofu and honey with maple syrup.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
