Ingredients
- 4 fresh salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp mirin
- 2 cups shiitake mushrooms, sliced
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp grated ginger
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- 1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, mirin, minced garlic, and ginger. Reserve one-third for later.
- 2. Marinate the Salmon: Coat salmon fillets with half the marinade; refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 3. Cook the Rice: Rinse jasmine rice until water runs clear. Combine with water (1 cup rice to 1.5 cups water) in a saucepan. Bring to boil, then reduce heat and simmer covered for about 15 minutes until tender.
- 4. Sauté the Mushrooms: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; add shiitake mushrooms and sauté for about five minutes until golden brown. Stir in reserved marinade and cook for another two minutes.
- 5. Cook the Salmon: Preheat grill or broiler; remove salmon from marinade and discard excess. Grill skin-side down for about six minutes per side or until cooked through.
- 6. Serve: Place salmon on jasmine rice topped with sautéed mushrooms and drizzle remaining marinade over all before garnishing with green onions.
