Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
4 salmon fillets, about 4 oz each
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 carrots, cut into matchsticks
2 red bell peppers, cored, seeded, and thinly sliced
8 oz shiitake mushrooms, halved
2 bok choy, quartered lengthwise
4 scallions, shredded
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
basmati or long-grain rice, to serve

Steps:

  • Mix the sesame seeds and red pepper flakes on a plate, then press the salmon fillets into the mixture to coat.
  • Heat half the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the salmon, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the skillet over high heat, add the vegetables, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until just cooked. Drizzle the soy sauce over the vegetables and serve with the salmon and basmati rice.
