Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 cup cooked quinoa
  • 2 tbsp furikake seasoning
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 thinly sliced scallions
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar

Instructions

1
Begin by whisking the white miso, maple syrup, soy sauce, and grated ginger in a small bowl until smooth.
2
Place the salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush liberally with half of the glaze.
3
Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10-12 minutes, then switch to broil for 2 minutes to achieve a caramelized, charred crust.

While the salmon rests, heat the sesame oil in a small pan, tossing the cooked quinoa until lightly toasted.
5
Stir in the furikake and rice vinegar.
6
Serve the salmon atop the bed of nutty, savory quinoa and garnish with fresh scallions for a bright, aromatic finish.
