Teriyaki Salmon Noodles, a perfect refreshing weekday meal for the family.
Easy Teriyaki Salmon served on a bed of Asian Noodles made with brown rice noodles, fresh veggies and a homemade Asian Sesame Dressing! A light, simple refreshing recipe for the summer!
So I kinda have a new obsession. Rice Noodles.
They have officially become my new favorite noodle to eat when I’m making pasta. The texture still gives you a nice bite just like regular pasta. They are long enough to “slurp” and are gluten free! So no bloat feeling afterwards. Woohoo! Plus, they come in white rice or brown rice noodle options!
When creating this Teriyaki Salmon recipe I knew that I wanted to serve it on a bed of noodles.
But not just any noodles.
It is summer after all, so a cold asian noodle salad was going to do the trick!
A couple months ago a created a Thai Chicken Zucchini Noodle Salad. It’s freakin awesome and super light a refreshing! All that say, I fell in love with dressing that I made for that salad so I decided to use it as the base for this asian noodle salad.
Ya’ll. It is sweet, spicy, tangy, and all around delicious! I served the salad cold because I like the contrast of the warm Teriyaki Salmon with the cold noodle salad. I’m all about adding intrigue to your food to make it pop in your mouth, so from different flavors to different temperatures your taste buds are gonna be on a journey the whole time.
The Salmon itself is marinaded in an easy homemade teriyaki sauce for about 15-20 minutes and then seared in a pan. Super easy peasy.
The noodle salad is loaded with crunchy veggies and tossed in my favorite asian sesame dressing. The trick to this dressing being so good is the sesame oil! It adds a slight nutty taste that is irresistible!
If you’re looking for a light, easy and refreshing recipe to make this weekend definitely give this Teriyaki Salmon a shot.
I guarantee you’re gonna love it! There are so many flavors to keep your taste buds busy guessing what they are gonna taste next!
Bon Appetit friends! Happy weekend-ing!
