Make
-
Bring a saucepan of water to boil. Add soba noodles and cook according to package instructions.
-
While noodles cook, heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil (the portion for salmon). Remove salmon from marinade (discard marinade) and place flesh-side down in heated pan. Sear salmon on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes. Lower heat to medium, cover pan loosely with foil and cook for another 4 to 8 minutes, depending on thickness of salmon and desired level of doneness.
-
Make dressing by combining reserved half of marinade with peanut butter, miso and sesame seeds. (To get a smooth sauce, it helps to combine all ingredients in a jar or plastic container with a lid and shake well.)
-
Drain noodles and combine with bell peppers, carrots and edamame. Add dressing and toss to combine.
-
Serve salmon over noodles and finish with fresh lime juice. Enjoy!
