Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 (6 oz) wild salmon fillets
  • Salt, garlic powder, onion powder + paprika to taste
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil (or olive oil)
  • 1 tbsp butter (or oil)
  • 1 large shallot, sliced thin
  • 10 oz baby Bella mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 medium carrots, julienned
  • 3 cups green cabbage, cut into strips
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup Basmati rice, uncooked
  • 1 tsp each salt, garlic powder, onion powder + paprika
  • 3 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • KILLER CRACK SAUCE:
    • 2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
    • 2 tbsp Tamari sauce (or soy sauce)
    • 2 tbsp honey
    • 1 tbsp ginger paste
    • 1 clove garlic, minced
    • 1 tsp sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat salmon dry and season both sides with spices.
  2. Heat oil and butter in large oven-safe skillet over medium-high. Sauté shallots 2 minutes.
  3. Add mushrooms and carrots, cook 4 minutes until softened. Stir in cabbage and garlic.
  4. Sprinkle rice evenly over vegetables. Season with spices and pour broth over top.
  5. Nestle salmon fillets into mixture. Bake uncovered 18-20 minutes until salmon flakes easily.
  6. Whisk all sauce ingredients in small bowl while baking. Drizzle over cooked salmon before serving.
  7. Garnish with extra sesame seeds and green onions if desired.

Notes

Tips: Substitute soy sauce for Tamari if needed. For crispier salmon, broil 2 minutes at the end.
Storage: Refrigerate leftovers in airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to prevent drying.
Prep Hack: Chop vegetables ahead of time for quicker assembly.
