Seared Salmon With Baby Bok Choy And Spicy Ginger Sauce Recipes

TERIYAKI SALMON WITH BABY BOK CHOY AND SHIITAKES

Steps:

• Pre Heat oven to 350F
• Place the salmon, bok choy and optional mushrooms on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Mix marinade ingredients (soy, vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and ginger, garlic ) together in a small bowl and spoon it over the fish and veggies, coating all sides well.
• Sprinkle the salmon with a pinch of salt and pepper and a little fresh orange zest, then place the sheet pan in the oven, checking it after 10 minutes. Then broil for the last few minutes to give the salmon a little color. Depending on how thick or thin the salmon is, it may be done sooner, or need a few more minutes- so remove it if need be- thinner cuts will cook faster. and continue cooking the bok choy until it just tender ( yet green and vibrant and crisp).
• Divide among 2 bowls.
• Sprinkle the bowl with toasted sesame seeds, or Furikake, scallions, and chili flakes or sriracha for heat.

30-MINUTE PAN-SEARED SALMON WITH BABY BOK CHOY AND SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Combine 1 1/2 cups water with the rice and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer until the rice is tender and most of the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest. Fluff with a fork right before serving.
• Meanwhile, quarter the bok choy through the stem ends. Halve the mushroom caps (or quarter them if they are large) by stacking them and cutting them in batches.
• Heat 2 large nonstick skillets with 1 tablespoon oil in each over medium-high heat. Divide the bok choy between the two pans, placing it cut-side down. Cook, undisturbed, until charred in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. By this time, the leaves will be fairly wilted, and there will be enough room to transfer all of the bok choy into just one skillet to finish cooking. Place the bok choy so that the other cut side faces down. Cook until charred in spots, about 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, scallion whites, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Continue to cook, stirring, until the bok choy and mushrooms are soft, about 4 minutes (if the skillet looks dry add 1 more tablespoon of oil). Stir in the scallion greens, then remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the soy sauce and vinegar.
• While the bok choy cooks, pat the fish dry with paper towels and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Wipe out the other skillet and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Put the salmon into the hot skillet, flesh-side down, and cook until golden brown and crisp, about 4 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook the other side to the desired level of doneness, 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Divide the vegetables and rice between 4 plates and top each with a piece of salmon. Drizzle with a little extra soy sauce.

GRILLED SALMON AND BABY BOK CHOY WITH GINGER AND GARLIC

Steps:

• Prepare a gas or charcoal grill to moderately high heat.
• Trim 1/8 inch from the bottom of each bok choy, then cut into quarters. Wash the bok choy in several changes of cold water and dry in a colander or salad spinner.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the sesame oil, sake, soy sauce, garlic, and ginger.
• On a large baking sheet, arrange 2 (12 by 24-inch) pieces of heavy-duty foil, overlapping them in the center to form a cross. Brush the entire surface of the salmon with the sesame oil mixture, then sprinkle with salt and pepper and place skin side down in the center of the foil. Arrange the bok choy on top of the salmon, then fold the foil into a packet, sealing in the salmon and bok choy.
• Transfer the foil packet to the grill and cook until the salmon is just opaque in center, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, open the foil slightly, and let stand 10 minutes.
• Remove the salmon and bok choy from the foil and cut the salmon into 8 servings. Divide the bok choy among 8 plates and top each with a piece of salmon. Garnish plates with lime wedges and serve immediately.
