Preparation
In a mixing bowl, combine American Garden Sesame Dressing, honey, ginger, and garlic. Mix well until fully blended.
Place the salmon fillets in the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let them rest for 15–20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place the salmon fillets in the pan and cook for 3–4 minutes on each side, depending on thickness, until the surface becomes caramelized and the inside is tender.
At last stage of cooking, spoon additional marinade over the salmon to build a glossy sesame glaze.
Arrange a portion of rice or grains on a serving plate. Place the cooked salmon on top of the prepared plate. Sprinkle green onion for garnish.
