Prep time: 25 MinCook time: 10 MinTotal time: 35 Min
Ingredients
- 4 skin-on salmon fillets
- 1 pound fresh Udon noodles
- 6 ounces cremini mushrooms
- 1 bunch kale
- 3 tablespoons white miso paste
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 2 tablespoon white sesame seeds
- 1 1-inch piece ginger
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/4 cup Ponzu Sauce
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup water
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Remove and discard the kale stems, roughly chop the leaves. Thinly slice the mushrooms. Peel and mince the ginger. To make the glaze, in a bowl, combine the maple syrup, miso paste, half the vinegar and 1/4 cup of water. Whisk until smooth.
- Heat a large, dry pan on medium-high until hot. Add the kale and 1/2 cup of water. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until the kale has wilted and the water has cooked off. Transfer to a bowl and set aside in a warm place. Wipe out the pan.
- In the pan used to cook the kale, heat 2 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, 4 to 6 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Add the ginger and sesame oil. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- To the pan of mushrooms, add the noodles (carefully separating with your hands before adding), cooked kale, ponzu sauce, remaining vinegar and 2 tablespoons of water. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until well combined.
- Remove from heat and divide between 4 dishes; set aside in a warm place. Rinse and wipe out the pan.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- In the pan used to cook the vegetables and noodles, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned fillets, skinless sides down. Cook 2 to 4 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced in volume by about half and the fillets are cooked to your desired degree of doneness.
- Top the dishes of cooked vegetables and noodles with the glazed salmon fillets. Garnish with sesame seeds.
