This slaw, beaming with bright ginger, lemon and scallion, is the perfect accompaniment to silky, rich salmon. For a more filling meal, serve with white or brown rice on the side.

HONEY-GLAZED BAKED SALMON
I got this recipe from a friend and, as a new cook, it is easy to make and delicious to boot! Even when I make this recipe with fewer pieces of salmon (2 small salmon filets), I still make the same amount of honey glaze, because it is so delicious and I prefer having more sauce rather than not enough.

SALMON WITH SESAME AND HERBS
The easy-to-memorize marinade for this fast broiled salmon hits all the right notes: salty, sweet and sour. The fish emerges from the oven with caramelized, crisp skin, which contrasts nicely with a salad of fresh parsley or cilantro (or both), tossed with sesame oil and rice wine vinegar. Close contact with the intense heat will help crisp up the skin, while keeping the rest of the fish tender and flaky. To avoid overcooking the salmon, be sure to buy fillets that are at least 1 inch thick, and keep an eye on the fish.

Steps:
- Combine soy sauce, light brown sugar and 3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar in a wide, shallow bowl (or small baking dish) and season with salt and plenty of black pepper. Place salmon skin-side up in the marinade and let sit for at least 20 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
- Place a rack in the top third of the oven and heat the broiler.
- Place salmon skin-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet; discard the marinade. Transfer to oven and broil until the salmon is cooked through and the skin is bubbling and lightly crisped, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toast the sesame seeds in a small skillet over medium heat, tossing frequently until seeds are golden brown and fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes.
- Toss shallot rings with remaining 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Let sit for a minute or two to lightly pickle, then add the sesame seeds, herbs and sesame oil and toss to combine.
- Transfer salmon to a large serving platter and spoon the remaining marinade from the sheet pan over the fillets. Top with sesame and herb salad and serve.

Steps:
- Mix the sesame seeds and red pepper flakes on a plate, then press the salmon fillets into the mixture to coat.
- Heat half the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the salmon, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
- Heat the remaining oil in the skillet over high heat, add the vegetables, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until just cooked. Drizzle the soy sauce over the vegetables and serve with the salmon and basmati rice.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality salmon: Opt for wild-caught salmon fillets whenever possible. They have a superior flavor and texture compared to farm-raised salmon.
- Use fresh sesame seeds: Fresh sesame seeds have a more robust flavor and aroma than pre-toasted ones. If you don't have fresh sesame seeds, toast them in a pan over medium heat for a few minutes until fragrant.
- Make sure the salmon is well-coated with the sesame seed crust: This will help ensure that the crust stays intact during baking. You can press the sesame seeds into the salmon fillets with your hands or use a spoon.
- Don't overcrowd the baking pan: Make sure there is enough space between the salmon fillets so that they can cook evenly. If necessary, use two baking pans.
- Bake the salmon until it is just cooked through: Overcooked salmon will be dry and flaky. The ideal internal temperature for salmon is 145 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the doneness of the salmon by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the fillet.
Conclusion:
Oven-roasted sesame seed-encrusted salmon is a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for lunch or dinner. It is a great source of protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and other essential nutrients. The crispy sesame seed crust adds a delicious flavor and texture to the salmon. This dish can be paired with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, rice, or quinoa.
