→ Glaze

03 - 15 ml olive oil
04 - 60 ml honey

# Detailed Directions:

01 - Combine honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then add the cornstarch slurry. Stir continuously until the mixture thickens, then remove from heat.
02 - Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and sear the salmon for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until just cooked through.
03 - Brush the salmon with the honey garlic glaze during the final minute of cooking. Remove from heat and allow to rest for a few minutes.
04 - Distribute cooked jasmine rice and broccoli evenly into four bowls. Place one salmon fillet on top of each bowl and drizzle with additional honey garlic glaze before serving.
05 - Transfer assembled bowls to airtight containers and refrigerate. Consume within 4 days for optimal freshness.

# Helpful Advice:

01 - For a lower sodium alternative, substitute regular soy sauce with low-sodium soy sauce. Brown rice or quinoa can replace jasmine rice. Additional vegetables such as bell peppers or snap peas may be included for variation.
