Recipe:
Teriyaki Salmon & Noodles
2 servings
Ingredients:
- 2, 4 oz skinless salmon fillets
- 2 tsps olive or avocado oil
- 2 Tbsps coconut aminos, Braggs liquid aminos, tamari, or low sodium soy sauce
- 6 oz brown rice noodles
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 crisp cucumbers, cubed
- 2 tsps rice vinegar
- 2 tsps sesame seeds, divided
Marinade
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos, Braggs liquid aminos, tamari, or low sodium soy sauce
- 2 Tbsps freshly-squeezed lemon juice
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- sea salt, to taste
- 1 fresh red chili, sliced
- 2 Tbsps raw honey or pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp sesame seeds
Instructions:
In a medium glass bowl, whisk all of your marinade ingredients together really well.
Chop your salmon into 1-inch bite size cubes and add it into the marinade, tossing to coat really well. Cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Heat the olive/avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Using a pair of tongs, add your salmon pieces and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Drizzle in all of the leftover marinade from the bottom of the bowl using a rubber spatula to get it all, and cook 3-4 minutes more.
The sauce should thicken and coat the salmon nicely. Set aside.
Next, cook your brown rice noodles according to their package directions. Drain and toss with sesame oil, coconut aminos, and some sesame seeds.
Finally, drizzle your chopped cucumber with the rice vinegar.
Divide your salmon pieces, brown rice noodles, and fresh cucumber equally into two separate meal prep containers. Sprinkle with sesame seeds if desired.
Stays well in the fridge for about 2 days.
Enjoy!
