Hoisin & Ponzu-Glazed Salmon with Roasted Green Beans & Garlic-Ginger Rice

Step 1

1 Prepare the ingredients & make the glaze Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard any stem ends from the green beans. In a bowl, combine the ponzu sauce, hoisin sauce, and vinegar.

Step 2

2 Cook the rice In a medium pot, combine the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 2 cups of water. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork. Stir in the sautéed aromatics until combined. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Cover to keep warm.

Step 3

3 Roast the green beans Meanwhile, line a sheet pan with foil. Place the green beans on the foil. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Roast 10 to 12 minutes, or until lightly browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.

Step 4

4 Cook the pork & serve your dish Meanwhile, pat the pork dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned pork. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Flip and cook 3 minutes. Add the glaze (carefully, as the liquid may splatter) and butter. Cook, frequently spooning the mixture over the pork, 1 to 2 minutes for medium (the center may still be slightly pink), or until coated and cooked to your desired degree of doneness.* Turn off the heat. Serve the cooked pork (including any glaze from the pan) with the cooked rice and roasted green beans. Garnish with the sesame seeds. Enjoy!*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 145°F for pork.
