Ingredients
Salmon
- 2, 4-6 ounce salmon fillets
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
Sauce
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- ¼ cup low sodium tamari or soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon sriracha or more to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons water
Noodles/Stir Fry
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons fresh grated ginger
- 4 ounces shiitake mushrooms
- ¾ cup edamame
- 1 cup chopped bok choy
- ¼ cup diced green onion white part only
- 6 ounces brown rice noodles
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook noodles according to package instructions.
- Mix together the salt, pepper and paprika. Add to the top of the salmon fillets and press to stick. I like using wild caught salmon, but whatever you have is great! Be sure to defrost it if previously frozen.
- You can keep the salmon filets whole or cube them. I've done both and it's great either way!
- Heat a non-stick skillet with oil and add the salmon, skin side up. Cook for 4-5 minutes over medium/low heat, then flip an additional 4-5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, whisk together all ingredients for the sauce. Add about 1/4 cup of sauce to the salmon and let cook an additional 2 or so minutes. I like to flip it a few times to get the sauce onto the top.
- Set the salmon aside and quickly rinse out the pan.
- Add the micned garlic, ginger and mushrooms to the pan with the oil. Saute for 5 minutes, then add in the edamame, scallions and bok choy. Saute for about 5 more minutes.
- When the noodles are done, combine with the veggies and add in the rest of the sauce, or enough just to taste.
- Serve with the salmon, sesame seeds, red pepper flakes and additional chopped scallions. Enjoy!
Notes
I just used brown rice spaghetti noodles, but really anything goes here!
For a lighter option, you could easily replace the rice noodles with cauliflower rice or keep it with just the veggies and salmon. You can add in broccoli, use spinach instead of bok choy, throw in some cabbage or peppers, the options are really endless.
