Salmon Over Noodles Recipe

Salmon Over Noodles Recipe

  • 4 (6 ounce) skinless salmon fillets
  • 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 large cloves garlic, chopped
  • 3 scallions, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon toasted Asian sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 8 ounces buckwheat noodles
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Tear off four 14-inch pieces of foil and coat with cooking spray. Place a salmon fillet in the center of each piece.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce and sherry. Spoon 1 tablespoon over each fillet. Crimp the foil and seal into packets. Reserve the remaining soy sauce mixture. Place the packets on a baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes, or until the salmon is just opaque in the thickest part.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the canola oil in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, scallions, and ginger and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes, or until the scallions have wilted. Add the sesame oil and the remaining soy sauce mixture and bring just to a boil. Stir in the cilantro.
  4. Divide the hot noodles among 4 plates. Open the packets and place the salmon and juices over the noodles. Top with the scallion mixture.
