Scale
For the Crust:
- 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skin on or off
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar

- 8 oz soba or udon noodles
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds, for garnish
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Whisk together soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and rice vinegar in a bowl to make the teriyaki sauce. Marinate the salmon in half of the sauce for 10 minutes.
- Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Toss the cooled noodles with the sesame oil and remaining teriyaki sauce.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the salmon fillets, reserving the marinade. Cook for 4-6 minutes per side, or until cooked to your liking. Pour the reserved marinade into the pan and let it simmer for 1 minute to create a glaze.
