Ingredients

• 1 lb. salmon
• 2 medium carrots
• 1-2 small bell peppers
• 1 cup green beans
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• 2 teaspoons sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 green onions (sliced, for garnish)
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1/4 cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 teaspoons hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil (or canola oil)
• 4 garlic cloves (minced)
• 2 teaspoons fresh ginger (minced)

Instructions

1. 1

   Cut the salmon into uniform, bite-sized cubes, about 1.5 inches. Place the salmon pieces in a shallow dish or ziptop bag.

2. 2

   Whisk together the stir fry sauce ingredients, and pour half of it over the salmon, turning to make sure that each piece is fully coated. Set the rest of the sauce aside. Marinate the salmon for 30 minutes up to 2 hours.

3. 3

   Slice the bell peppers and cut the carrots into matchstick size pieces.

4. 4

   Add half of the sesame oil to the skillet and heat over medium-high temperature. Add the bell peppers, carrots, and green beans and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are browned and softened slightly.

5. 5

   Heat the rest of the oil in the skillet, then add the salmon pieces. Cook for 2 minutes per side, turning until they’re browned on all sides.

6. 6

   Add the rest of the sauce to the skillet and simmer the salmon in the sauce for 5-6 minutes, stirring often.

7. 7

   When the fish is flaky and cooked through, add the vegetables to the skillet and toss to combine and coat with the sauce.

8. 8

   Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions, and serve right away!
