Instructions

Step 1: Pat dry 2 salmon fillets and season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 2: Place salmon skin-side down in the skillet and cook for 5 minutes without moving until skin is crisp. Flip and cook an additional 3 minutes until salmon is cooked through.
Step 3: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp grated fresh ginger.
Step 4: Pour the honey-soy mixture over the salmon in the last minute of cooking and spoon the glaze over the fillets until thickened and sticky.
Step 5: Meanwhile, heat 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil in another skillet over medium heat. Add 12 oz trimmed green beans and sauté for 5-6 minutes until tender-crisp.
Step 6: Sprinkle 1 tsp sesame seeds over the green beans and toss to coat. Serve salmon with the glazed sauce alongside the sesame green beans.
