I love that I can swap out veggies or noodles based on what I have in the fridge! I love rice noodles so I used them – but you could easily use Soba or Udon noodles – or even zoodles or rice!
What’s in the dish?
First you need salmon! I get my salmon from Sitka Salmon Shares. It’s straight from Alaska – more on that below!
Next you need to marinate the salmon in Teriyaki sauce for at least 30 minutes. You can make your own – or purchase a pre-made. My favorite is Keli’s Hawaiian Luau Teriyaki sauce – you can buy it in stores in Washington, Oregon and Hawaii – or get it online from their site. (It’s worth it!!)
After that – you make your noodles – there’s lots of yum here!
- Rice noodles – you could also use udon or soba – or even rice
- Oil – I used a combo of sesame and olive oils
- Veggies – onion, red pepper, snow peas, spinach and mushrooms (get exotic – try enoki & shitake!)
- Soy sauce
- Sweet Thai Chili Sauce
- Garlic
- Fresh lime juice
What’s Sitka Salmon Shares?
I’ve started working with Salmon Sitka Shares and love it! They work with small family fish farms in Alaska to bring quality, fresh-caught fish from the boat to your door. When I visited Alaska – I met with salmon fishermen and know how they’re working to rebuild America’s seafood supply through healthy, sustainable fishing.
With Salmon Sitka Shares – you get $25 off your first Premium Share with my code TFHFish
- You will receive a box of fresh caught fish delivered to your door each month! It’s fresh caught based on the season – with a variety of fish each month from salmon, cod, halibut, crab and more!
- Your fish will be caught with love and care by small-boat family fishermen, many of whom are owners of the company, and all of whom take great pride in harvesting you the best fish.
- You will be completely satisfied with anything and everything you receive from us. If you aren’t, just let us know and we’ll refund your purchase price or replace your fish with something you’d be happier with that we catch.
How do you make Teriyaki Salmon Noodles
This dish will take a couple of pans and some multi-tasking skills – but you can do it!
- Get the salmon marinating before dinner – I put it in mid-afternoon
- Make your noodles – they only take five minutes if you’re using rice noodles and be sure to rinse them with cold water so they don’t keep cooking
- Make your salmon and veggies at the same time in separate pans – I prefer making my salmon in the air fryer – less oil and set it & forget it!
- For the veggies, heat sesame & olive oil in a non-stick skillet first. Then add your onion and peppers. After a couple of minutes – add the rest of the veggies (mushrooms & snow peas), garlic and soy sauce.
- Time to put it all together: – the noodles with thai chili sauce, leftover marinade, spinach and lime juice!
- Last – but not least – top with your salmon and serve! So delicious!
