Asian Salmon

Home » COOK » Recipes » Asian Salmon

A delicious Asian salmon dish with bok choy / pak choi and mushrooms.

My husband is becoming quite the masterchef! His experimenting and cooking skills are really impressing me – and the dishes he is making are tasting so delicious too! He cooked this Asian Salmon for us last night for dinner, and I could smell the ginger wafting up the stairs to my office! Even better, is that he cooked an extra salmon fillet, as well as the vegetables which meant I didn’t have to worry about lunch today after going out for a meeting.

There is a little bit of marinading time – but only 15 minutes – that could be going on while prepping the other ingredients.

This was such a tasty and summery dish. I loved the ginger that perfumed all of the ingredients. I ate the leftovers cold the next day, where the marinade had a chance to do its work even further! This Asian Salmon is definitely going into our meal rotation during the summer!
