Serves/Makes: 4
Ready in: 1-2 hrs
- 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce, PLUS
- 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce, divided
- 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Chinese-style mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon five spice powder
- 4 skinned salmon fillets (4 ounce size)
- non-stick cooking spray
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 small carrots, peeled and julienned
- OR
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 leek, white part only, julienned
- 1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth, vegetable broth, or water
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
In a shallow dish, combine 1/4 cup soy sauce, lemon juice, mustard and five-spice powder. Add the salmon. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Turn fillets, re-cover, and refrigerate for 30 more minutes. Meanwhile, coat a skillet, preferably nonstick, with nonstick spray and place over medium heat. Add sesame seeds and saute, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes, or until golden. Transfer the seeds to a dish and set aside. In the same skillet, saute the carrots and leek until tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, and the sesame oil. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, or until no liquid remains. Preheat the broiler. Arrange an oven rack 4 inches from the heat. Broil salmon for 10 minutes per inch thickness of fish, or until fish is just cooked through. The fish will continue to cook once it is removed from the oven. Spoon some of the leek mixture onto each dinner plate. Arrange the salmon on the leek mixture and sprinkle with sesame seeds.

Use center-cut salmon fillets of similar thickness so that they cook at the same rate. The best way to ensure uniformity is to buy a 1 1/2- to 2-pound whole center-cut fillet and cut it into 4 pieces.
