Sesame Ginger Salmon Salad

Oddly enough, I’m not really big on putting fish into salads, but something about these sounded like they really paired well to dinner. PRO TIP, if this seems a little over ambitious for you, there is no shame in just buying one of the premade salad mixtures from the store, just limits your creativity. Overall this recipe was fairly simple, and turned out pretty damn good! 

- Salmon Filet 

- Ginger 

- Garlic

- Soy Sauce (1/2 cup)

- Brown Sugar (1/4 cup)

- Honey (3 tbsp)

- Sesame Seeds

- Green Onions

- Green and Red Cabbage

- Kale

- Shredded Carrots 

- Green Peas

- Nuts (Cashews, Almonds, or Peanuts) 

Instructions:

1. Start by browning some minced garlic and ginger in a pan.

2. Cook salmon about 4-6 mins on each side to desired level.

3. When the salmon is cooked, add in soy sauce, brown sugar, and honey and let it thicken. Let cooked salmon rest while you make the salad. 

4. Cut up cabbage and kale, then stir in carrots, peas, and which ever nuts you’d like. 

5. Mix salad together and begin plating, place salmon on top and pour the sauce lightly overtop salmon and salad as dressing.

6. Garnish the top with sesame seeds and green onion!
