Simple Sweet Chili Salmon with Sesame Broccoli & RiceSimple Sweet Chili Salmon with Sesame Broccoli & Rice — a 40-minute dinner recipe with 10 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

1 ½ cups basmati rice

3 crowns broccoli

710 ml chicken or vegetable broth

1.02 kg salmon fillet

brown sugar

chili-garlic sauce

cornstarch

rice vinegar

salt

toasted sesame oil

Instructions

Preheat oven to 205°C (400°F). Line two baking sheet pans with parchment paper.

Using a strainer or colander, rinse the rice under cold, running water, then drain and transfer to a medium saucepan. Add broth and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

Once the liquid comes to a boil, stir the mixture, cover the saucepan, and reduce the heat to low. Cook the rice until the liquid is fully absorbed, 15-18 minutes. Once done, remove the rice from the heat and let it stand, still covered, for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, place vinegar, sugar, water, chili-garlic sauce, and salt in a large pot. Whisking occasionally, bring to a boil over high heat.

In a small bowl, make a slurry by whisking water with cornstarch until smooth.

Add cornstarch slurry to the pot in a steady stream while whisking quickly. Cook, whisking continuously, until the sweet chili sauce thickens, 30-60 seconds. Remove from heat.

Place salmon, skin-side down, on the baking sheets. Spoon the sweet chili sauce evenly over each filet.

Place salmon in the oven and bake until opaque and flaky, 12-18 minutes.

Meanwhile, wash and dry broccoli. Separate into bite-sized florets and cut stems into smaller pieces.

Wipe pot clean with paper towels and place over medium heat.

Once the pot is hot, add oil and swirl to coat the bottom.

Add broccoli and stir-fry until bright green and tender-crisp, 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat.

To serve, divide rice, salmon, and broccoli between plates or bowls. Enjoy!
