Preparation
Mise en place
Thinly slice the scallions crosswise, separating the white bottoms and green tops. Remove the root ends of the bok choy; halve lengthwise (quarter if large). In a small bowl, combine the miso, maple syrup and ¼ cup water (double for 4 portions).
Cook the rice
In a medium pot, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the white bottoms of the scallions and ½ the ginger. Sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the rice, ¾ cup water (double for 4 portions) and a big pinch of salt; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer, 17 to 20 min., until the rice is tender and the water has been absorbed. Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 5 min. Fluff the rice.
Cook & glaze the salmon
Meanwhile, pat the salmon dry with paper towel; season with ½ the spices. In a medium pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the salmon and cook, partially covered, 2 to 3 min. per side, until partially cooked. Add the miso-maple mixture and cook, spooning the sauce over, 1 to 2 min., until the salmon* is cooked through and glazed.
Cook the bok choy
Meanwhile, in a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the remaining ginger and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the bok choy and sauté, 2 to 3 min., until beginning to soften. Add 1 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and cook, partially covered, 2 to 3 min., until tender; season with the remaining spices and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the rice between your plates. Top with the salmon and bok choy. Garnish with the green tops of the scallions. Bon appétit!
