This teriyaki-glazed salmon is the perfect dinner when you are short on time but want something healthy and tasty.
“We are big salmon fans in my house and this dish is a firm favourite,” says singer and presenter Rochelle Humes.
“The teriyaki marinade is zingy and delicious. Simply serve with brown rice and whatever greens you have in the fridge or freezer for a knock-out meal. I’ve suggested edamame beans, which I love as they are really versatile and packed with protein.”

Heat one teaspoon of the sesame oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, then add the salmon, skin-side down, and half of the marinade. Cook for five minutes until the skin is crisp, then turn the salmon fillets and add the remaining marinade to the pan. Cook for another three to five minutes until the salmon is cooked through.
Meanwhile, combine the remaining lime juice, sesame oil and garlic in a small bowl and set aside.
Drain the rice and vegetables and divide between four serving bowls, then top each with a fillet of the salmon. Spoon the lime and sesame dressing over the vegetables in each bowl, then serve.
