Ingredients
| Qty | Item |
|---|---|
| 4 6-oz portions | Salmon fillets |
| 1 lb | Baby bok choy |
| 0.25 cup | Low-sodium soy sauce |
| 2 tbsp | Honey |
| 1 tbsp | Fresh ginger, grated |
| 2 cloves | Garlic, minced |
| 1 tbsp | Toasted sesame oil |
| 1 tbsp | Rice vinegar |
| 2 stalks | Green onions, sliced |
| 1 tsp | Sesame seeds |
How to Make Sheet Pan Ginger Soy Salmon and Bok Choy
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, and rice vinegar until well combined.
Prepare the bok choy by slicing each head in half lengthwise. Rinse thoroughly under cold water to remove any grit and pat very dry with paper towels.
Arrange the salmon fillets and the halved bok choy on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Brush about two-thirds of the ginger soy glaze generously over the salmon fillets. Drizzle the remaining glaze over the bok choy, tossing the greens slightly to ensure they are coated.
Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 12 to 15 minutes. The salmon should be opaque and flake easily with a fork, and the bok choy should be tender with slightly charred edges.
Remove from the oven and garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately, optionally over a bed of jasmine rice or quinoa.
Tips for Best Results
-
·
Always use fresh ginger and garlic rather than the powdered versions for a much deeper, restaurant-quality flavor.
-
·
To get a better sear on the salmon, you can broil the pan for the last 2 minutes of cooking, but watch closely to prevent the honey in the glaze from burning.
-
·
Ensure the bok choy is completely dry before roasting; excess water will cause the vegetables to steam rather than roast and crisp.
-
·
If your salmon fillets are of varying thickness, place the thinner tail pieces in the oven a few minutes after the thicker center-cut pieces.
