Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, lime juice, salt, and black pepper. Add the salmon fillets and let them marinate for 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Salmon

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place it skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until cooked through.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Shishitos

    In the same skillet, add the shishito peppers and sprinkle with chili flakes. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes or until they are blistered and tender.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Plate the cooked salmon alongside the sautéed shishitos. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the top if desired.
