Instructions

Marinate Salmon: In a small bowl, combine the maple syrup, miso paste, tamari, lime juice, olive oil, 1 green onion, sambal Oelek and garlic clove. Place salmon in either a ziplock bag, or shallow baking dish, and pour the marinade over it. Marinate, covered or sealed, for at least 1 hour, the longer the better.

Cook brown rice according to package instructions. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Once the oven is hot, place the salmon on the baking sheet and bake for 10-15 minutes, until cooked through.

While the salmon is in the oven, steam the broccolini for 8 minutes, then toss with sesame oil and seeds.

Plate: Cut the salmon into 5 equal pieces. Divide the rice among 5 dishes, and top with sesame broccolini, salmon, a handful of micro greens, sliced avocado, green onions, and kimchi.
