Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger to create the glaze.
  2. Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season 4 salmon fillets with 1/4 tsp black pepper, then place skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for 4 minutes until crispy.
  3. Step 3: Flip the salmon and brush generously with half the honey-soy glaze. Cook for another 3 minutes until salmon is cooked through and glaze thickens.
  4. Step 4: Remove salmon from skillet and keep warm. Add 1 tbsp sesame oil to the same skillet, then toss in 2 cups trimmed snow peas, sautéing for 2-3 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
  5. Step 5: Add remaining honey-soy glaze to the snow peas, tossing for 1 minute to coat evenly.
  6. Step 6: Plate the salmon over snow peas, sprinkle with 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 thinly sliced green onions before serving immediately.
