Kung Pao Salmon
  1. Preheat the oven to 375. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment.

  2. Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 13-15 minutes.

  3. Meanwhile, make the sauce. In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, maple syrup, vinegar, crushed red pepper flakes, ½ tablespoon of pepper. Add ¼ cup water and whisk in 1 tablespoon of cornstarch until the sauce is smooth.

  4. To an oven safe skillet, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger, and green onions, cook for 2 minutes or until fragrant. Stir in the soy sauce mixture and bring to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes. Once the salmon is done add it to the sauce and cook for another 2 minutes. Set the oven to broil, stir in the peanuts and broil for 2-3 minutes until the top of the salmon starts to caramelize.

  5. Serve the salmon and sauce over bowls of orzo or rice. Top with additional peanuts and green onions. Enjoy!
