How to Make Asian Style Salmon On A Bed Of French String Beans
- In a large zip-top bag, whisk together 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp grated ginger, 1 clove minced garlic, and 1/2 tsp sesame oil.
- Add 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets to the bag, ensuring they are fully coated in the marinade. Seal and refrigerate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp cornstarch and 2 tbsp water until smooth. Set aside.
- Heat a grill pan and a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat.
- Remove salmon from marinade, reserving marinade. Sear salmon in the grill pan for 2 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
- Meanwhile, heat 1 tsp sesame oil in the wok. Add 1 lb trimmed French string beans, 1/2 red bell pepper (sliced), 1/4 cup sliced onion, and 2 cloves minced garlic. Stir-fry for 2 minutes.
- Add reserved marinade, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and the cornstarch/water mixture to the wok. Stir-fry for 2 minutes more until sauce thickens.
- Stir in 1 tbsp hoisin sauce and toss to coat the vegetables.
- If using shirataki noodles (8 oz), cook according to package directions. Alternatively, serve over cooked rice.
- To serve, place shirataki noodles or rice on a plate, top with the French string bean mixture, and then the pan-seared salmon.
- Garnish with sesame seeds (optional).
