Make teriyaki glaze:

  • In a small saucepan, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. Bring to a simmer for 2–3 minutes. Stir in cornstarch slurry and cook until slightly thickened. Reserve ⅓ of the sauce for drizzling later.

Glaze & bake salmon:

  • Brush salmon generously with teriyaki glaze. Bake for 12–15 minutes, until flaky (125–130°F internal temp). In the last 2 minutes, brush with more sauce and broil briefly to caramelize.

Cook rice:

  • While salmon bakes, cook 1 cup dry jasmine rice with rice vinegar in a rice cooker

Steam broccoli:

  • Microwave the steam-in-bag broccoli until tender, about 5 minutes. You can also steam fresh broccoli over a pot instead of the frozen route, but sometimes you just need a low-effort side. Sue me!

Assemble bowls:
