- Salmon: 4 salmon fillets (about 150 g each), salt and black pepper to taste.
- Teriyaki Sauce: 60 ml soy sauce, 60 ml mirin, 2 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 2 tsp sesame oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp grated fresh ginger, and a slurry of 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tsp water.
- Vegetables: 1 red bell pepper (sliced), 1 carrot (julienned), 150 g broccoli florets, 100 g sugar snap peas, and 2 tbsp vegetable oil.
- Rice: 300 g jasmine or sushi rice and 450 ml water.
- Garnishes: 2 tbsp sesame seeds and 2 thinly sliced spring onions.
Instructions
- Step 1: Prepare the Rice
- Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
- Step 2: Make the Teriyaki Sauce
- In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, mirin, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook for 1-2 minutes until thickened. Set aside.
- Step 3: Sear the Salmon
- Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add a splash of oil and sear salmon fillets skin-side down for 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
- Step 4: Glaze the Salmon
- Brush the salmon generously with the prepared teriyaki sauce. Cook for 1 minute more to let the glaze set, then remove from heat.
- Step 5: Stir-fry the Vegetables
- Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir-fry the bell pepper, carrot, broccoli, and sugar snap peas for 3-4 minutes until tender but still crisp.
- Step 6: Assemble the Bowls
- Divide the cooked rice between four bowls. Top with the stir-fried vegetables and the teriyaki-glazed salmon. Drizzle any extra sauce over the top and garnish with sesame seeds and spring onions.
Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
For an even deeper flavor profile, consider marinating the salmon fillets in half of the teriyaki sauce for about 15 minutes before you begin searing them. Ensure your skillet is properly heated before adding the fish to achieve a beautiful, caramelized exterior.
