Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp mirin
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 cup sliced cucumber
  • 1/2 avocado sliced
  • 1 tbsp black sesame seeds
  • 1 scallion thinly sliced

Instructions

1
Begin by whisking together the white miso, honey, mirin, and sesame oil in a small bowl until a smooth, glossy glaze forms.
2
Pat the salmon fillets completely dry with paper towels to ensure a superior crust.
3
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of oil and sear the salmon skin-side down for 4 minutes until crisp.
4
Flip the fillets, turn the heat to low, and pour the miso glaze over the fish.
5
Let it bubble and caramelize for 2-3 minutes, basting the salmon continuously until the edges are golden and sticky.
6
Assemble the dish by placing a generous scoop of fluffy jasmine rice into a bowl.
7
Top with the glazed salmon, fresh cucumber slices, and creamy avocado.
8
Garnish with a sprinkle of black sesame seeds and fresh scallions for a vibrant, professional finish.
