Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tsp grated fresh ginger, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, and 1 tbsp sesame oil to create the glaze.
Step 2: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add 8 oz soba noodles and cook for 5 minutes until just tender. Drain and toss with remaining 1 tbsp sesame oil and 2 thinly sliced green onions.
Step 3: Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 salmon fillets skin side down and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip salmon and brush generously with the soy-ginger glaze. Cook an additional 3-4 minutes until salmon is cooked through and glaze is sticky.
Step 4: Serve salmon fillets over the sesame noodles, sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes over the top for a hint of heat.
