Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 minced garlic clove
  • Β½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 4 salmon fillets, skin-on, about 6 oz (170 g) each
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 cups fresh broccoli florets (about 300 g)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
  • Optional: red pepper flakes
  • 1 Β½ cups cooked jasmine or brown rice (about 300 g)
  • Toasted sesame seeds for garnish
  • Sliced green onions for garnish
  • Optional: pickled ginger or a wedge of lime

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425Β°F (220Β°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together white miso paste, honey or maple syrup, low-sodium soy sauce, rice vinegar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and toasted sesame oil until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Toss broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional red pepper flakes. Spread on one side of the baking sheet.
  4. Pat salmon fillets dry and season with salt and pepper. Place skin-side down on the other side of the baking sheet.
  5. Brush the top of each salmon fillet generously with the miso glaze. Reserve extra glaze for serving if desired.
  6. Roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until salmon flakes easily and broccoli is crisp-tender with golden edges.
  7. While roasting, cook jasmine or brown rice according to package instructions and fluff with a fork.
  8. Divide cooked rice between bowls. Top with roasted salmon and broccoli.
  9. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions on top. Add pickled ginger or lime wedge if desired.
  10. Optional: drizzle extra miso glaze or soy sauce over the bowl for added flavor.

Notes

If glaze thickens, thin with a teaspoon of warm water before brushing. Watch salmon closely to avoid overcooking. Roasting broccoli at high heat ensures crisp-tender texture with caramelized edges. Leftovers store well up to 3 days; reheat salmon and broccoli gently to keep skin crisp.
