Ingredients

Salmon fillets
4 (6-ounce) fillets
Vegetable oil
2 tablespoons
Garlic
3 cloves, minced
Ginger
1 tablespoon, grated
Soy sauce
1/4 cup
Honey
2 tablespoons
Broccoli florets
2 cups
Carrots
2, sliced thin
Red bell pepper
1, sliced
Cooked rice
4 cups, for serving
Green onions
2, sliced for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create a flavorful glaze. Set aside.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  3. Carefully add the salmon fillets to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  4. In the same skillet, add the broccoli florets, sliced carrots, and red bell pepper. Stir fry for about 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are crisp-tender and vibrant in color.
  5. Pour the prepared soy glaze over the stir-fried vegetables and toss to coat them evenly.
  6. Return the cooked salmon fillets to the skillet, spooning the glaze over them. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the salmon to heat through and the glaze to caramelize slightly.
  7. Serve the salmon stir fry over bowls of steamed rice, garnished with sliced green onions for an extra crunch and freshness.

Tips

  • 💡 For a spicier kick, consider adding a splash of sriracha or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the soy glaze.
  • 💡 You can substitute the salmon with chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
  • 💡 Feel free to mix in other vegetables such as snap peas or baby corn for added variety.
