Steps

1Prepare microwave rice according to package directions.

2While rice heats, make the glaze: whisk white miso, melted butter, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, and minced ginger in a small bowl until smooth.

3Pat salmon fillets dry and season with salt and pepper on both sides.

4Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add salmon skin-side up and sear 4 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip, brush generously with miso glaze, and cook 3 minutes more until just cooked through. Brush with remaining glaze.

5Divide hot rice among four bowls. Top each with a salmon fillet.

6Arrange cucumber slices and napa cabbage on the side of each bowl. Drizzle the bowl with sesame oil.

7Garnish with sliced green onion and sesame seeds. Serve warm.
