Ingredients
  

For the Salmon and Marinade:

4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skin on

1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon sesame oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Veggies and Rice:

1 cup jasmine rice, rinsed

2 cups vegetable broth (or water)

1 cup broccoli florets

1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

1 cup snap peas

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

Optional: extra teriyaki sauce for drizzling

Instructions
 

Marinate the Salmon:

    - In a bowl, mix together the teriyaki sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.

      - Add the salmon fillets to the marinade and let sit for at least 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator for more flavor).

        Cook the Rice:

          - In a large skillet or pan, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

            - Add the rinsed jasmine rice, stirring for 1-2 minutes until slightly toasted.

              - Pour in the vegetable broth, bring it to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover. Cook for 12-15 minutes, or until all the liquid has been absorbed. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

                Sauté the Vegetables:

                  - In the same skillet (after the rice is done), add a bit more olive oil if necessary and toss in the broccoli, bell pepper, and snap peas.

                    - Sauté for 4-5 minutes until just tender but still vibrant in color. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

                      Cook the Salmon:

                        - Push the sautéed vegetables to the side of the skillet, creating space for the salmon fillets.

                          - Place the marinated salmon in the skillet, skin side down.

                            - Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, spooning some of the leftover marinade over the top for extra flavor. A lid can be placed over the skillet to help steam the salmon for a few minutes, ensuring it cooks through.

                              Assemble the Bowl:

                                - To serve, spoon the fluffy jasmine rice into bowls, followed by a generous portion of the sautéed vegetables.

                                  - Top with a salmon fillet and a drizzle of extra teriyaki sauce if desired.

                                    - Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions for a fresh finish.
