Instructions

Step 1: Whisk together 3 tbsp white miso paste, 2 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp mirin, 1 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp sesame oil in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 2: Place salmon skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet, then brush generously with 2 tbsp of the miso glaze mixture.

Step 4: Steam broccoli florets for 5-7 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp, using a steamer basket over boiling water.
Step 5: Bake salmon in preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 12-15 minutes until glaze bubbles and salmon reaches 145°F.
Step 6: Fluff cooked quinoa, then serve salmon over quinoa with steamed broccoli on the side, sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds.
