Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

¼ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon wasabi paste
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon water, or as needed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
2 scallions, thinly sliced, whites and greens separated
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon grated ginger
2 heads bok choy, ends trimmed and leaves separated
1 tablespoon water
4 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Combine mayonnaise, lime juice, wasabi paste, 1 clove garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon ginger in a small bowl. Add just enough water to give dressing a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add white parts of the scallions, 2 cloves garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon ginger. Stir until softened, about 2 minutes. Add bok choy and 1 tablespoon water. Cook until leaves wilt, about 3 minutes. Season with salt. Transfer bok choy mixture to a plate.
  • Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Pat salmon dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper. Place salmon skin-side down in the skillet. Cook until skin is crispy, about 6 minutes. Flip salmon and reduce heat to medium. Cook until flesh is opaque, about 4 minutes more.
  • Transfer salmon to serving plates; drizzle wasabi dressing on top. Garnish with green parts of the scallions. Serve bok choy mixture alongside.

The salmon was a bit dry for my taste, but the dressing was delicious. I will try again with a different cooking method.
