Miso-Glazed Salmon and Bok Choy Recipe

Miso-Glazed Salmon and Bok Choy Recipe

  • 1/2 cup miso
  • 1/3 cup mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
  • 1/4 cup sake (Japanese rice wine)
  • 3 tablespoons firmly packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets
  • 2 heads baby bok choy, halved lengthwise, or more to taste
  1. Stir miso, mirin, sake, brown sugar, and soy sauce in a shallow dish. Add salmon fillets; turn to coat. Marinate at room temperature, 10 to 15 minutes, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  2. Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
  3. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Transfer fillets onto the baking sheet, reserving marinade.
  4. Place bok choy in the marinade; turn to coat. Arrange bok choy next to salmon on the baking sheet, reserving marinade.
  5. Broil in the preheated oven until salmon is lightly charred on the edges, about 4 minutes. Flip salmon and bok choy; brush with reserved marinade. Continue cooking until salmon is browned and flakes easily with a fork, about 3 minutes. Transfer salmon to serving plates. Continue cooking bok choy until it is tender-crisp, 3 to 4 minutes more.
