Sesame-Crusted Salmon Bowls

• 份量: 4 servings

食材

½ cup fresh lemon juice

6 Tbsp. toasted sesame oil

2 Tbsp. honey

2 Tbsp. finely chopped pickled ginger

1 2" piece ginger, peeled, finely grated

½ cup plus 2 tsp. soy sauce

2 lb. carrots, peeled, very thinly sliced lengthwise with a vegetable peeler

2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt, plus more

4 scallions, thinly sliced on a diagonal

4 5–6-oz. skinless salmon fillets

6 Tbsp. white and/or black sesame seeds

2 Tbsp. vegetable oil

Steamed white rice (for serving)

步驟

Whisk together ½ cup fresh lemon juice, 6 Tbsp. toasted sesame oil, 2 Tbsp. honey, 2 Tbsp. finely chopped pickled ginger, one 2" piece ginger, peeled, finely grated, and ½ cup soy sauce in a small bowl. Set dressing aside.

Toss 2 lb. carrots, peeled, very thinly sliced lengthwise with a vegetable peeler, and 2 tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt in a large bowl to combine and let sit 15 minutes to allow carrots to release excess liquid.

Pour off any liquid that has accumulated in bowl; discard. Drizzle ¼ cup reserved dressing over carrots, add 4 scallions, thinly sliced on a diagonal, and toss to combine. Set carrot salad aside.

Pat four 5–6-oz. skinless salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt. Place on a large plate with a lip; drizzle remaining 2 tsp. soy sauce over and rub on both sides to coat. (Doing this will help the sesame seeds adhere to the salmon.)

Place 6 Tbsp. white and/or black sesame seeds on another large plate. Working one at a time, place salmon on top and turn to coat, pressing seeds to adhere.

Heat 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium. Working in 2 batches, cook salmon until golden brown and firm, about 5 minutes per side.

Transfer salmon fillets to plates and mound some steamed white rice and reserved carrot salad alongside. Serve with remaining reserved dressing.
