Teriyaki Salmon over Sesame Broccoli Noodles
Spiralized carrot and broccoli ‘noodles’ replace traditional pasta in this Asian inspired dish. Soy, honey, and ginger flavor both the salmon and the broth that you use to cook the ‘noodles’ . Be sure to cook the veggie noodles until just tender so they still have nice firm texture yet soak up the delicious flavor from the broth. Prepping this dinner on the weekend when you have more time will make it a perfect weeknight dish. Click on “recipe tips” below to see just how!

How to Make It
Step 1
Stir the garlic, ginger, vinegar, soy sauce and honey in a small bowl. Set aside 3 tablespoons soy sauce mixture in a separate bowl (for coating the fish). Reserve the remaining soy sauce mixture. Brush the fish with the 3 tablespoons soy sauce mixture and discard any left over.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the fish and cook for 6 minutes or until lightly browned on both sides and cooked through. Remove the fish from the skillet, cover and keep warm in the oven at 200°F.
Step 3
Wipe the skillet clean. Add the remaining sesame oil and heat over medium heat. Add the vegetable noodles and cook for 3 minutes. Add the reserved soy sauce mixture and broth and cook for 3 minutes or until the vegetable noodles are tender. Season to taste. Serve the salmon over the vegetable noodles.
Recipe Tips
- Prep Ahead Meal: You can save on prep at dinner by spiralizing your veggies ahead of time. Spiralized vegetables store great in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Make extra and place in gallon-sized resealable bags. Use some for this recipe and the rest for a quick and fun veggie side dish at another meal. You can also make the soy sauce mixture ahead of time and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator as well.
