Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let them marinate for at least 20 minutes.
- While the salmon is marinating, cook the brown rice according to package instructions.
- Steam the broccoli florets until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Heat a tablespoon of oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated salmon fillets and cook for 2-3 minutes per side.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness.
- Serve the teriyaki salmon over a bed of cooked brown rice, with steamed broccoli on the side.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
Service Suggestion
- Pair this dish with a side of miso soup for an authentic Japanese-inspired lunch.
- Drizzle some extra teriyaki sauce over the salmon for added flavor.
Notes
- Add a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the salmon for a burst of citrus flavor.
- Sprinkle the steamed broccoli with a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
