Ingredients

- 8 ounces spaghetti or rice noodles
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced

How to Make Grilled Salmon with Noodles
- Start by marinating the salmon. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, minced ginger, minced garlic, honey, and sesame oil. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let them marinate for 15 minutes.
- While the salmon is marinating, cook the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside, reserving a bit of the pasta water.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade, shaking off any excess, and season with salt and pepper.
- Grill the salmon for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish flakes easily with a fork and has nice grill marks.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked noodles with the remaining marinade. If needed, add a splash of reserved pasta water to help coat the noodles. Toss in sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
- To serve, place a generous portion of the soy-ginger noodles on each plate and top with a grilled salmon fillet. Garnish with additional sesame seeds and green onions if desired.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure the grill is preheated for a proper sear on the salmon.
- Let the salmon rest for a few minutes after cooking for juicier results.
- Adjust the marinade ingredients to your taste; add more honey for sweetness or more ginger for a spicier kick.
Easy Variations
- Swap the salmon for grilled chicken or tofu for a different protein option.
- Add steamed vegetables like broccoli or bell peppers to the noodles for extra nutrition.
- Use whole wheat noodles or zucchini noodles for a healthier twist.
What to Serve With It
- A fresh cucumber salad with sesame dressing.
- Steamed edamame sprinkled with sea salt.
- A light miso soup for a warm complement to the meal.
