Instructions

  1. Step 1: Season 4 salmon fillets evenly with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper on both sides.
  2. Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger.
  3. Step 3: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the salmon fillets skin-side down and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crisp.
  4. Step 4: Flip the fillets and pour the garlic-soy mixture over the salmon. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, spooning the sauce over the fish as it thickens and glazes the surface.
  5. Step 5: Remove salmon from the pan and keep warm. In the same skillet, add 12 oz snap peas and 1 tsp toasted sesame oil. Sauté over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until snap peas are bright green and tender-crisp.
  6. Step 6: Sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 thinly sliced green onions over the snap peas before serving alongside the glazed salmon.
