Oven-Baked Miso Salmon
with Gingery Asian Greens & Cucumber Salad

Preparation
Roast the yu choy
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Remove the bottom inch of the yu choy stems.
- Grate the ginger.
- On a lined sheet pan, toss the yu choy with ⅔ of the ginger, a drizzle of oil and S&P.
- Roast, flipping halfway, 6 to 8 min., until tender.
Mise en place
- Meanwhile, halve the cucumbers lengthwise; using the side of your knife, gently smash the halves until slightly flattened. Cut into large chunks.
- Thinly slice the scallion crosswise, separating the white bottom and green top.
- Juice the lime.
Make the smashed cucumber salad
- In a medium bowl, combine the cucumbers, green top of the scallion, ⅔ of the lime juice, ½ the sesame seeds, a drizzle of oil and S&P.
Bake the salmon
- In a small bowl, combine the miso, white bottom of the scallion, 1 tbsp oil (double for 4 portions), and the remaining lime juice, ginger and sesame seeds.
- Pat the salmon* dry; brush both sides with the miso mixture.
- Arrange on a second lined sheet pan and bake, 6 to 10 min., until cooked through.
Plate your dish
- Divide the yu choy, smashed cucumber salad and salmon between your plates. Bon appétit!
