Equipment

  • Nonstick skillet or sauté pan
  • Medium pot (for noodles)
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk for sauce
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Tongs or spatula

Ingredients
  

  • 2 salmon fillets (fresh or high-quality frozen)
  • ¼ cup soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar or honey
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp rice vinegar or mirin
  • 4 oz noodles (rice, udon, or soba)
  • 1 cup vegetables (broccoli, bell peppers, carrots, snap peas)
  • Optional garnish: sesame seeds, chopped green onions, chili flakes
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Prepare Teriyaki Sauce: Whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar/honey, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and rice vinegar/mirin. Simmer briefly to thicken.
  • Cook Noodles: Boil noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  • Cook Vegetables: Sauté vegetables in sesame oil until crisp-tender.
  • Cook Salmon: Season salmon with salt and pepper. Sear skin-side down for 3–4 minutes, flip, and brush with teriyaki sauce. Cook until just flaky.
  • Assemble Bowls: Toss noodles with sautéed vegetables and remaining sauce. Place salmon on top.
  • Garnish & Serve: Sprinkle with sesame seeds, green onions, or chili flakes. Serve immediately.
  • Pro tip: Reserve some sauce to drizzle over the top for extra flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Gluten-Free: Use tamari and gluten-free noodles.
  • Low-Carb / Keto-Friendly: Swap noodles for zucchini or shirataki noodles.
  • Make Ahead / Meal Prep: Keep sauce separate and assemble bowls before reheating to maintain noodle and vegetable texture.
  • Variations: Spicy (add chili flakes or sriracha), extra cheesy (sprinkle parmesan), vegetarian (replace salmon with tofu or tempeh).
  • Storage: Refrigerate in an airtight container for 3–4 days. Freeze sauce separately for up to 1 month. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
