Teriyaki Salmon with Steamed Broccoli

This delightful Japanese-inspired main dish features succulent salmon fillets glazed with a homemade teriyaki sauce, perfectly complemented by vibrant, steamed broccoli. A quick and healthy meal ideal for a single serving, bursting with flavor and nutrition.

Steps

1. In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, mirin, honey, and sesame oil to create the teriyaki sauce. 2. Season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper. 3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add the salmon, skin-side down. Cook for about 4 minutes. 4. Flip the salmon and pour the teriyaki sauce over it. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and the sauce thickens slightly. 5. Meanwhile, steam the broccoli florets for about 5 minutes until tender but still vibrant in color. 6. Plate the salmon and drizzle any remaining teriyaki sauce on top. Serve with steamed broccoli, garnished with sesame seeds if desired.
