Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds (mixed white and black optional)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 8 ounces soba noodles
- 2 cups bok choy, chopped
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 2 green onions, sliced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Salmon: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Brush the salmon fillets with the mixture and coat them with sesame seeds on all sides.
- Cook the Salmon: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add a drizzle of oil. Place the salmon fillets in the skillet, skin side down, and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the salmon is cooked through and the crust is golden.
- Cook the Soba Noodles: In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and cook the soba noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté the Bok Choy: In the same skillet used for the salmon, add a little more oil if needed, and sauté the bok choy for about 2-3 minutes until wilted. Season with salt and pepper.
- Serve: Plate the soba noodles, top with the sautéed bok choy, and place the sesame-crusted salmon on top. Garnish with sliced green onions.
