INSTRUCTIONS
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook 4 oz carrots for 1 minute. Add 8 oz broccoli and cook for another 1 minute. Drain and rinse under cold water to preserve color and crispness.
Mix together the sauce components: 2 1/2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp water, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp lemon juice, 1 tsp Sriracha, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp cornstarch, and 1/2 tsp garlic powder.
Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place 22 oz salmon fillets, skin-side down, into the heated oil to cook for 5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes.
Gently move the fillets to the side and sauté 1 tbsp garlic in the middle for 30 seconds.
Add the sauce components and cook for 30 seconds to reduce.
Sprinkle 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 tbsp chopped scallion on top. Enjoy with 3 cups of cooked rice.
