Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp white miso paste, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp maple syrup, and 1 tsp sesame oil to form a smooth glaze.
Step 2: Pat 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets dry and rub the miso glaze evenly over the flesh side. Place skin-side down in a baking dish.
Step 3: Heat 1 tbsp neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp grated ginger, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4: Add 12 oz chopped bok choy and 1 tbsp soy sauce, stir-frying for 4 minutes until greens are vibrant and slightly wilted. Add 1 tbsp water if needed to prevent sticking.
Step 5: Place salmon in the skillet skin-side up, spooning any excess glaze over the top. Cook for 10-12 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
