9 steps

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup light soy sauce, divided
  • 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon mustard powder (or hot Asian mustard)
  • 1/2 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
  • 4 (5 ounce) salmon fillets, skin removed and thinly sliced or 4 salmon steaks
  • nonstick cooking spray
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 2 small carrots, cut into julienne strips
  • 1 leek, trimmed, rinsed and cut into julienne strips (white part only)
  • 1 1 cup reduced-sodium fat-free chicken broth or 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Directions

  1. 1
    In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup soy sauce, lemon juice, mustard powder and the spice powder.
  2. 2
    Place the salmon in a shallow dish, brushing both sides of the fish with the soy mixture. Cover the dish with plastic and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  3. 3
    Preheat the broiler.
  4. 4
    Spray a medium skillet with cooking spray and heat it over medium heat. Add the sesame seeds. Saute until the seeds are golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the sesame seeds to a plate.
  5. 5
    Spray the skillet again.
  6. 6
    Saute the carrots and leek until they are crisp, but tender, about 5 minutes. Add the water or broth, remaining soy sauce and sesame oil. Simmer until most of the liquid evaporates, about 10-15 minutes.
  7. 7
    Meanwhile, place the salmon on a broiler pan. Broil, 4 inches from the heat, until the fish is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  8. 8
    Spoon the leek mixture evenly onto 4 serving plates and arrange the salmon filets on top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  9. 9
    Serve immediately.
