Enjoy an Asian-style dinner in the comfort of your home with this easy Asian Salmon and Noodles. Perfectly cooked salmon serve over noodles with mushrooms and snow peas that are tossed in Sriracha flavored, honey-sesame sauce. My ultimate favorite salmon recipe!
INGREDIENTS :
Asian noodles:
- 5 green onions, chopped
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ¼ c. honey
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- ¼ c. soy sauce
- ¼ c. chicken stock
- 2 c. snow peas end trimmed (around 60 snow peas)
- 1 tsp Sriracha sauce, substitute with any other hot sauce if you don’t have Sriracha
- ½ pound pasta, preferably Fettuccine (half a pound)
- 2 tbsp sesame oil
- 10 button mushrooms, sliced, or 1 Portobello mushroom, sliced
Asian salmon:
- 1 lb. salmon
- 2 tbsp cooking oil
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- salt & pepper
DIRECTIONS :
Asian Noodles:
Step 1: In a large frying pan, heat the cooking oil over medium heat. To the pan, add the chopped green onions and sesame seeds once the oil is hot. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes, stirring often. Next, add the sliced mushrooms and continue to cook for 2 minutes more. Take the pan off the heat and add the soy sauce, honey, chicken stock, sesame oil, and Sriracha. Stir well.
Step 2: Boil the snow peas in another pan for about 3 to 5 minutes until tender but still crunchy. Drain when done.
Step 3: Following the package directions, cook the pasta in a large pan with boiling water until al dente. Drain the pasta when done.
Step 4: In the large frying pan with the vegetables, add the drained snow peas and pasta. Toss well and heat over medium-low heat.
Asian salmon:
Step 5: Prepare the broiler and preheat it.
Step 6: Generously season the non-skin side of the salmon with salt and pepper. To a hot large skillet, drizzle the oil. Then, add the salmon, skin-side up, and sear for about 4 minutes. To prevent the salmon from sticking to the bottom of the skillet, make sure to move the salmon around.
Step 7: Turn the fish over to the skin side after 4 minutes and continue to sear the other side for another 3 minutes over high heat. Feel free to remove the skin of the salmon at this point if you do not like it.
Step 8: Whisk the honey and soy sauce. To soften the honey, heat it a little in the microwave or on the stovetop. Then, brush the salmon with the mixture and broil for about 3 minutes. Midway through broiling, brush the salmon with more sauce if desired. Broil the salmon until the top is slightly charred.
Step 9: Serve the salmon right away or keep it covered until ready to serve. Keep the salmon covered for a few minutes if it is slightly undercooked in the middle to let the salmon continue cooking. Enjoy!
