Ingredients
  

For the Teriyaki Salmon:

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

For the Broccoli Rice:

3 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Juice of 1/2 lemon

Instructions
 

Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger until well combined. Set aside half of the sauce for drizzling later.

    Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the remaining teriyaki sauce over them. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes, flipping halfway through.

      Cook the Salmon: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the salmon from marinade (discard the used marinade) and place the fillets skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. During the last minute of cooking, add the reserved teriyaki sauce to glaze the salmon.

        Make the Broccoli Rice: While the salmon is cooking, blitz the broccoli florets in a food processor until they resemble rice grains. Heat olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the processed broccoli rice, followed by garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until tender but still bright green. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice.

          Serve: Spoon the broccoli rice onto plates, top with the glazed teriyaki salmon fillets, and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Drizzle with reserved teriyaki sauce if desired.
