A quick and easy miso-glazed salmon dinner bowl that combines sweet and savory flavors with fresh veggies and rice, perfect for New Year’s Eve or any cozy dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 skin-on salmon fillets (about 6 oz / 170 g each) – fresh or thawed
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine or brown rice (about 400 g cooked)
  • 1 cup steamed broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 medium carrot, julienned or thinly sliced
  • 1/2 avocado, sliced (optional)
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
  • Optional extras: pickled ginger or kimchi, chili flakes or Sriracha, lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Prepare the miso glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons white miso paste, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger until smooth.
  2. Cook the rice according to package instructions and keep warm.
  3. Steam the broccoli florets until tender but still bright green, about 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  4. Julienne the carrot and slice the avocado and green onions. Set aside.
  5. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down and cook for 4-5 minutes without moving them.
  6. Flip the fillets and brush the miso glaze generously over the salmon. Cook for another 3-4 minutes, spooning extra glaze over the top occasionally until salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
  7. Divide the warm rice between four bowls. Arrange steamed broccoli, carrot slices, and avocado on the side.
  8. Place the glazed salmon on top or off to one side, then sprinkle with green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
  9. Add optional extras like pickled ginger, chili flakes, or a squeeze of lime if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

Let the salmon fillets come to room temperature before cooking and pat the skin dry for a crispy finish. If glaze starts to burn, lower heat and add a splash of water or soy sauce. The miso glaze can be made ahead and stored refrigerated for up to a week. For extra caramelization, broil the glazed salmon for 1-2 minutes after pan-searing.
