Sticky Soy Glazed Salmon with Broccolini and Lime Rice

Ingredients:

Lime rice

• 1 cup jasmine rice
• Zest of 1 lime

Salmon

• 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
• 4 skinless salmon fillets, weighing 180 g each, patted dry
• 1/3 cup honey
• 1/3 cup soy sauce
• 1 tbsp. l. rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
• 2 cloves garlic, grated
• Juice of 1 lime and half a lime, cut into thin half-moon slices
• Coriander leaves, for serving

Broccolini

• 1 bunch broccolini, wash, stems cut to 8 cm.

Preparation:

1. Lime rice:
   
   Cook rice according to package directions and keep warm.
2. Salmon:
   
   Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil and heat until shimmering. Add the fish, flesh side down, and fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
3. Sticky soy glaze:
   
   Combine honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic, and lime juice in a bowl. Turn the fish over and pour the soy mixture into the bottom of the pan. Bring the soy mixture to a boil and spoon it over the salmon while it cooks until done, 5-7 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, bring a pot of water with a steamer basket to a boil over high heat. Add the broccoli, cover, and steam until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
5. Transfer the fish to a plate. Add the lime wedges to the pan and simmer over low heat until the glaze becomes very sticky, about 3 more minutes.
6. Add lime zest to the rice and toss. Transfer to a serving platter. Arrange the broccolini on top of the rice, add the fish, glaze, and lime wedges, then sprinkle with cilantro.
