Easy Salmon and Broccoli Teriyaki

Shoot shoot shoot shoot. This shit is GOOD, y’all. And very simple. I used brown rice for some added health, and all in, this took NO time. Also delicious heated up the next day for lunch (except the fish. Don’t be that person who reheats fish at work).

Chili Garlic Salmon and Broccoli by Maebells

Serves 2

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 salmon fillets

  • 1 lemon, sliced

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce

  • 1 1/2 tablespoon chili garlic sauce

  • 2 tablespoons sesame seed oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

  • 2 cups broccoli florets

  • 1 cup jasmine rice

  • 2 cups water

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In a small sauce pan with a lid bring the 2 cups of water to a boil.

  2. Add the rice, stir and reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer until all liquid is absorbed, approximately 15 minutes.

  3. Heat a large skillet to medium heat.

  4. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil and carefully add two rows of lemon slices. Lay the salmon skin side down and let cook covered for five minutes.

  5. Remove lid and carefully flip salmon, cover and let cook another five minutes.

  6. Meanwhile, combine the soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, sesame oil, and garlic in a small bowl. Set aside.

  7. At this point you can remove the lemon slices from the pan if you wish. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the sauce and the broccoli, cover and let cook for 3 minutes.

  8. To assemble bowls add rice, salmon, broccoli, and spoon out additional sauce from the pan if you wish.
