Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 pound salmon fillets
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon gochujang Korean chili paste
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1/4 cup green onions sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1 cup steamed broccoli optional

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, gochujang, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade.
  2. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let the salmon marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  3. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  4. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Reserve the marinade for later.
  5. Bake the salmon for 12-15 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
  6. While the salmon is baking, heat the reserved marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring it to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
  7. To serve, divide the cooked jasmine rice among bowls. Top each bowl with a piece of salmon, drizzle with the thickened marinade, and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Add steamed broccoli if desired.
