By Unblond1

11/11/16 - VVG. Dan liked too although I didn't bother to give him any of the bok choy.

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Lundburg black Japonica rice (I did 6 the first time, it was too much)
• Pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, cut into small batons
• 2 teaspoons maple syrup
• 2 teaspoons seasoned rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons mirin
• 1 teaspoon olive oil
• 1 salmon or trout fillet, halved (I used a 196 gram Costco fillet. 2/3's for this recipe and the remaining 1/3 as a leftover for Chili Udon)
• 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Preparation

Step 1

Cook rice in rice cooker on brown rice cycle using chicken broth with a pinch of salt and a teaspoon of sesame oil.

In a bowl, whisk soy sauce, ginger, maple syrup, vinegar and mirin.

Heat small non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Rub both sides of fish lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add to skillet, cover with a lid and cook for 4 minutes. Turn, add soy-ginger mixture and cook fish for a further 2 or 3 minutes, breaking into serving-sized shards at the end. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions and stir to mix.

Divide rice between 2 shallow bowls. Top with salmon and roasted bok choy. Boil soy-ginger mixture in pan over high heat while plating then drizzle over fish and serve.
