Salmon:
4 salmon fillets
Sauce:
2 tbsp honey
3 tbsp soy sauce
3 tbsp sesame oil
3 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tsp Double Garlic Pepper
½ tsp Black Pepper
½ tsp Pyramid Salt
Sides:
250 g whole grain noodles
4 spring onions
1 tbsp sesame seeds
Optional extra veggies (like sugar snap peas, broccoli, carrots, or your favorites)
Heat a pan well and place the salmon fillets on the hot pan, skin side down, for about 4-5 minutes. Flip the salmon and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
While the salmon is cooking, whisk together all the ingredients for the sauce. Remove the salmon from the pan and pour the sauce in. Let it simmer for about 2-3 minutes. Place the salmon back into the pan with the sauce, and allow it to simmer for another 3-4 minutes, coating the fillets well.
Serve with cooked whole grain noodles, finely chopped spring onions, and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. You can also add steamed veggies like sugar snap peas, broccoli, carrots, or your favorites. If there’s extra sauce left, toss the veggies in it or pour over the noodles.
Tip! The salmon is great cold the next day and can also be used as a filling for bao, fresh spring rolls, or served with boiled rice.
Enjoy your meal!
