1 cup jasmine rice
Zest of 1 lime
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Four 6-ounce skinless center-cut salmon fillets, patted dry
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon ginger, finely grated
2 cloves garlic, grated
Juice of 1 lime and 1/2 lime, thinly sliced into half moons
Cilantro leaves, to garnish
1 bunch broccolini, cleaned with stalks trimmed to 3 inches long

Steps:

For the lime rice: Cook the rice according to the package instructions and keep warm.
For the salmon: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and heat until the oil shimmers. Add the salmon flesh-side down and sear until golden brown, about 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk together the honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic and lime juice in a bowl.
Turn the fish over and add the soy mixture to the bottom of the pan. Bring the soy mixture to a simmer and spoon over the top of the salmon as it cooks until cook through, 5 to 7 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water with a steamer insert to the boil over high heat. Add the broccolini, cover and steam until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
Remove the fish to a plate. Add the lime slices to the skillet and simmer until the glaze is super sticky, about 3 minutes more.
Add the lime zest to the rice and stir. Tip onto a platter. Arrange the broccolini on top and place the salmon, glaze and lime slices on the broccolini, then sprinkle over the cilantro.
