Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons white miso paste, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil.
  2. Step 2: Place 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each) skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the miso glaze evenly over the top of each fillet.
  3. Step 3: Bake for 12-15 minutes, until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Meanwhile, cook quinoa: combine 1/2 cup uncooked quinoa with 1 cup water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until water is absorbed.
  4. Step 4: Steam broccoli: place 2 cups broccoli florets in a steamer basket over boiling water, cover, and steam for 5 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Add 1 teaspoon soy sauce to the steamer basket for extra flavor.
  5. Step 5: Divide cooked quinoa between two bowls. Top with a salmon fillet, arrange steamed broccoli on the side, and drizzle with any remaining glaze. Sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds.
