Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Medium saucepan

Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 1/2 cups white rice
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions
 

  • Add the rice and water to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the water is absorbed.
  • While the rice cooks, stir together the honey, soy sauce, and minced garlic in a small bowl to make the glaze.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, then place it skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for 4 minutes.
  • Flip the salmon and pour the glaze over the fillets. Cook 3 more minutes, spooning the glaze over the fish as it thickens.
  • Add the broccoli florets to the skillet around the salmon. Cover and steam for 4 minutes until the broccoli turns bright green and tender.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat. Fluff the rice and divide it among four plates. Top each plate with one salmon fillet and a portion of broccoli. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions before serving.

Notes

Start the rice first so it finishes right when the salmon is ready. If the glaze thickens too fast in the skillet, add a splash of water to loosen it. Leftovers reheat well in a covered pan over low heat with a little extra soy sauce stirred in to refresh the glaze.
