Golden Pan-Seared Salmon with Crispy Tofu
Pan-seared salmon and cubed tofu finished with a zesty ginger-tamari glaze and served alongside crisp-tender bok choy for a vibrant, protein-packed meal.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz salmon fillet
4 oz extra firm tofu
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp tamari
1 tsp fresh ginger
1 clove garlic
1 cup bok choy
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Press the extra firm tofu between paper towels to remove excess moisture and cut into 1-inch cubes.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the sesame oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the tofu cubes to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crispy, then remove and set aside.
Place the salmon fillet skin-side down in the same skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is very crisp.
Carefully flip the salmon and add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped bok choy to the empty spaces in the pan.
Whisk the tamari and lemon juice together in a small bowl, then pour the mixture over the salmon and vegetables.
Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened slightly and the salmon is cooked to your preferred doneness.
Plate the salmon alongside the glazed bok choy and top with the crispy tofu cubes.
