Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 sliced cucumber
  • 1/2 sliced avocado
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 2 thinly sliced scallions

Instructions

1
Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lining a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the white miso, honey, soy sauce, grated ginger, and sesame oil until a smooth glaze forms.
3
Pat the salmon fillets completely dry with a paper towel and place them skin-side down on the prepared sheet.
4
Brush the glaze generously over the tops and sides of the salmon.
5
Roast in the oven for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and the glaze has caramelized into a sticky, golden crust.
6
While the salmon rests for two minutes, divide the warm jasmine rice into two bowls.
7
Arrange the fresh cucumber slices and avocado beside the rice.
8
Place the salmon fillet atop the bowl, then garnish with a flurry of toasted sesame seeds and fresh scallions for a vibrant finish.
