• Pre Heat oven to 350F
• Place the salmon, bok choy and optional mushrooms on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
• Mix marinade ingredients (soy, vinegar, honey, sesame oil, and ginger, garlic ) together in a small bowl and spoon it over the fish and veggies, coating all sides well.
• Sprinkle the salmon with a pinch of salt and pepper and a little fresh orange zest, then place the sheet pan in the oven, checking it after 10 minutes. Then broil for the last few minutes to give the salmon a little color. Depending on how thick or thin the salmon is, it may be done sooner, or need a few more minutes- so remove it if need be- thinner cuts will cook faster. and continue cooking the bok choy until it just tender ( yet green and vibrant and crisp).
• Divide among 2 bowls.
• Sprinkle the bowl with toasted sesame seeds, or Furikake, scallions, and chili flakes or sriracha for heat.

Grill, turning, until charred, about 4 minutes. Drizzle with any remaining dressing and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Whisk vinegar, soy sauce, chili paste, and honey in a small bowl; set aside.
• Season salmon with 1 tsp. salt. Place on a plate and sprinkle with cornstarch, turning to coat. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Cook salmon in a single layer, undisturbed, until golden brown underneath, 2-3 minutes. Turn and cook until other side is lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Pour sauce over salmon and continue to cook, gently turning salmon halfway through, until sauce is thickened slightly and clinging to salmon, about 1 minute. (Sauce will bubble aggressively when first added and will then calm down.)

• Place rice (if using) and bok choy on a platter. Arrange salmon over and drizzle bok choy and salmon with any remaining sauce in skillet. Top with scallions and sesame seeds.
