Miso‑Glazed Salmon with Steamed Asparagus

Ingredients

• 2 pieces Salmon fillets
• 2 tablespoons White miso paste
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
• 8 stalks Fresh asparagus
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds(optional)
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice(optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   In a small bowl, whisk together miso paste, honey, soy sauce, and optional lemon juice to form a glaze.

2. 2

   Pat the salmon fillets dry, brush each side generously with the miso glaze, and set aside for 2 minutes.

3. 3

   While the salmon rests, trim the woody ends off the asparagus and toss the stalks with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

4. 4

   Place the salmon on a broiler-safe pan and the asparagus on a steaming rack; broil the salmon on high for 4‑5 minutes until the glaze is caramelized and the fish flakes easily.

5. 5

   Steam the asparagus for 3‑4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.

6. 6

   Serve the salmon topped with optional sesame seeds alongside the steamed asparagus.
