HONEY-SOY GRILLED SALMON WITH CILANTRO NOODLES

Steps:

• Prepare a medium-hot grill. While grill is heating, soak the vermicelli in a large bowl with hot water until soft, about 20 minutes. Brush the salmon with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Make the glaze for the salmon by combining 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, and 1/2 tsp ground pepper. Set aside.
• Make the dressing; in a small bowl combine 4 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp honey, sesame oil and lemon juice. Place salmon skin side up and place on an oiled grill. Grill for around 2 minutes Turn salmon over and brush with glaze. Cover and cook until salmon is opaque, but very moist (depending on size 3-5mins approx). I did not use a grill, instead I just broiled the fish, and did not turn it over as it had no skin on it. While the fish is cooking drain the vermicelli and pat dry with paper towels. Toss the noddles with the dressing, cilantro and sesame seeds. Serve with salmon.

HONEY-SOY SALMON

Steps:

• Put soy sauce, honey, and garlic powder into a small, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave a few seconds at a time to liquefy the honey. Stir ingredients together.
• Place salmon in a glass or ceramic dish. Pour marinade over top, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add olive oil and butter.
• Remove salmon from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade and arrange salmon in the skillet, skin-side down. Cook until the edges turn opaque, about 8 minutes. Flip salmon and peel off the skin. Cook until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 3 more minutes. Flip salmon over to brown both sides.

HONEY SOY GRILLED SALMON WITH EDAMAME

Steps:

• Preheat the grill over medium-high direct heat. Oil the grill grates. Finely chop the cilantro and scallion and mix in the oil and ginger. Season with salt and pepper.
• Cut two 3-inch long slits through the skin lengthwise on the bottom of the salmon fillets, going about halfway into the salmon. Evenly stuff the slits with the herb mixture. Season the fish with salt and pepper.
• Stir together the lime juice, soy and honey until smooth. Place the salmon, skin side up, on the grill and cook until well marked, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the salmon and continue to cook, brushing the tops with the sauce, until the fish is cooked through, about another 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle the tops with the sesame seeds. Serve with edamame and lime wedges.
• Broiler directions: Position an oven rack so that a baking sheet set on the rack is about 4-inches below the heat source. Preheat the broiler. Prepare the salmon as above and place the fillets, skin down, on a foil lined baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Broil, basting 3 to 4 times with the sauce, until just cooked through, about 6 to 7 minutes.
