Instructions
- Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together miso paste, honey, mirin, grated ginger, and 2 tbsp water until smooth. Set aside.
- Step 2: Bring a medium pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add broccoli and carrots, cook for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender, then drain and toss with 1 tsp sesame oil and 1 tsp soy sauce. Keep warm.
- Step 3: Place salmon skin-side down in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook for 5 minutes until skin is golden and crisp, then flip. Brush glaze over salmon, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for 4-5 minutes until salmon reaches 125°F internally and glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
- Step 4: Transfer salmon to a plate, skin-side up, and brush with remaining glaze. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately with the steamed vegetables.
