A flavorful and aromatic dish featuring pan-seared salmon glazed with miso and turmeric, served alongside creamy coconut rice.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons white miso paste
  • 1 tablespoon turmeric powder
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup jasmine rice

Instructions

  3. Pat the salmon fillets dry. Coat both sides with the miso-turmeric mixture.
  4. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  5. Sear salmon for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky.
  6. While salmon cooks, combine rinsed rice, coconut milk, and salt in a saucepan.
  7. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.
  8. Fluff the coconut rice with a fork.
  9. Serve salmon over coconut rice. Garnish with cilantro.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the miso mixture.
