Hot & Sour Salmon with Greens

Makes 6 servings

INGREDIENTS

2½ pounds baby bok choy or bok choy, stem ends and leaf
tips trimmed
8 whole scallions, ends trimmed, cut into thin slices
on the diagonal
¼ cup fresh ginger cut into very thin julienne shreds
6 salmon steaks, about 6 ounces each
3 cups cooked brown rice

DRESSING

3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons Chinese black vinegar or balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon minced garlic

DIRECTIONS

1. Trim the tough outer leaves from the bok choy and discard. Rinse the stalks and leaves and
drain. Cut the stalks in half lengthwise. Cut the halves diagonally into 2-inch sections. In
a bowl, toss the scallions and ginger with the bok choy sections. Arrange on a heatproof
platter.
2. Mix the ingredients of the dressing and pour into a serving bowl.
3. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Place the salmon steaks on top of the greens. Pour into a
roasting pan several inches of water and heat until boiling. Carefully place the platter of
salmon and vegetables on top of a rack or steamer tray in the roasting pan. Cover the top
of the pan tightly with aluminum foil. Bake 7 to 9 minutes, or until the fish is cooked.
4. Serve the salmon from the heat-proof platter or arrange the steamed vegetables and salmon
on serving plates. Spoon the dressing on top and serve with brown rice.
