This flavorful dish combines the rich taste of salmon with the aromatic blend of garlic and ginger, creating a mouth-watering glaze that perfectly complements the fish. Paired with a medley of fresh vegetables, this recipe is not only delicious but also healthy and easy to prepare.

Ingredients:
– 4 salmon fillets
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
– 1/4 cup soy sauce
– 1/4 cup honey
– 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
– 1 teaspoon sesame oil
– 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 teaspoons water
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1 bell pepper, sliced
– 1 zucchini, sliced
– 1 cup broccoli florets
– 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
– Fresh chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions:

1. Prepare the glaze:
– In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Set aside.
– Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté until fragrant (about 1 minute).
– Add the soy sauce mixture to the pan and bring it to a simmer.
– Add the cornstarch mixture to the pan and stir until the glaze thickens. Remove from heat.

2. Season and cook the salmon:
– Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
– Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
– Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
– Brush the glaze generously over the salmon fillets.

3. Bake the salmon:
– Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Baking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.

4. Prepare the vegetables:
– While the salmon is baking, heat some olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
– Add the sliced bell pepper, zucchini, and broccoli florets. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
– Season with a pinch of salt, and pepper, and, if desired, a drizzle of additional sesame oil.

5. Assemble the dish:
– Once the salmon is done, let it rest for a few minutes.
– Serve the salmon fillets on a plate alongside the stir-fried vegetables.
– Sprinkle with sesame seeds and garnish with fresh parsley.

Enjoy your delightful garlic ginger glazed salmon with its succulent blend of flavors and nutritious vegetable accompaniment!
