Tonight I made another recipe for the Zaar World Tour. I was making a recipe for the "Hot and Steamy" challenge. There was a recipe I found to be interesting called Steamed Salmon with Soy Glaze and I decided to make that last night.
There was one problem with that.
There recipe wasn't complete.
It was missing directions for the noodles and green beans.
I sent a message to the woman who posted the recipe and she let me know that she is trying to edit the recipe and get it fixed, but let me know how to complete the recipe. I didn't get the message until well after dinner last night. That wasn't much of a problem though because I just changed around my plans.
This was delicious!!! It is also low calorie, according to the nutrition facts on Recipezaar. This was pretty easy to make as well. The most difficult part was grating the ginger because it was so moist.
This is definitely a recipe I'll have to make again sometime!
Steamed Salmon with Soy Glaze
| 4 | skinless salmon fillets, 6 oz. each |
| 3 | tablespoons soy sauce |
| 1/2 | cup soy sauce |
| 1 | garlic clove, minced |
| 1 | tablespoon finely grated ginger |
| 2 | tablespoons shredded ginger |
| 2 | tablespoons rice wine or sherry wine |
| 1/4 | cup rice vinegar |
| 2 | tablespoons lemon juice |
| 1 | tablespoon sugar |
| 2 | tablespoons sliced scallions |
| 1 (18 3/4 | ounce) package soba noodles or 1 (1 lb) box whole wheat pasta |
| 1/2 | lb small green beans, sliced in half lengthwise |
- Place the salmon in a shallow dish. Combine 3 t. of the soy sauce, the garlic, grated ginger, and 1 T. of the rice wine and pour over the salmon, turning to coat. Cover and marinade for 15 minutes in refrigerator (fish shouldn't be marinaded for much longer than that).
- Place the rice vinegar, lemon juice, sugar, the remaining soy sauce, and the remaining rice wine in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir, and when sugar is dissolved, bring to a boil, and cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
- Fill a large saucepan with 1 inch of salted water and bring to a boil. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place in a steamer basket over the pot. Sprinkle the scallions and shredded ginger over the salmon. Cover and steam over the boiling water for 4 minutes or until cooked through. Remove and keep warm.
- While the salmon is cooking, bring a pot of water to a boil and cook noodles to package directions. Add green beans to the noodles for about 3-4 minutes of boiling time.
- Drain the noodles, serve on a plate, topped with the salmon, and pour some glaze over the top.
