Ingredients
Marinade
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon minced peeled ginger
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon unseasoned rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey (or brown sugar)
- 2 salmon filets
Vegetables
- 1 red pepper, remove seeds, cut into thin strips
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 cups or 1 8-ounce package snow peas
- 1 10-ounce package frozen riced cauliflower
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Instructions
Heat oven to 400℉.
Line baking sheet with foil, parchment or Silpat for easy clean up
Salmon marinade: combine sesame oil, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, and honey in a baking dish. Add salmon and lightly rub marinade over fish.
On baking sheet, toss pepper strips with 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil. Scatter into a single layer on the sheet pan. Roast 10 minutes.
While peppers are cooking, turn fish over in marinade.
Remove vegetables from oven, lay salmon, skin side down on pan, pour sauce over. Add snow peas, stir to coat with marinade. Cook 7-10 minutes or until salmon is cooked to 145℉.
Cauliflower Rice
Heat skillet over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon olive oil and the frozen riced cauliflower. Cook about 5 minutes. It thaws as it cooks, and all the excess moisture evaporates.
To serve, spoon cauliflower on plate and place vegetables, fish and cooking juices over cauliflower.
Notes
Substitutions and Notes
Substitute a blend of vegetables or green beans, carrots, or asparagus for the snow peas.
