Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup snap peas
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
- Chopped green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Set aside.
- Cook the Salmon: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Pour half of the teriyaki sauce over the salmon. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the salmon is cooked halfway through.
- Add Vegetables: Flip the salmon and add the sliced bell pepper, broccoli, and snap peas to the skillet. Pour the remaining teriyaki sauce over everything. Cover and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, until the salmon is fully cooked and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
