Miso-Ginger Baked Salmon with Sesame Bok Choy
Baked salmon glazed with miso and ginger, served over quick-sautéed sesame bok choy for an omega-3-rich, low-carb Asian-inspired dinner.

A simple miso-ginger glaze turns salmon fillets into something restaurant-worthy with barely any effort — just whisk, brush, and bake. Paired with quickly sautéed bok choy finished with sesame oil, this dinner comes together in about half an hour.
Salmon is naturally rich in heart-healthy omega-3 fats, and because this dish skips heavy starches in favor of a big pile of bok choy, it keeps the carbohydrate count low while still feeling like a complete, satisfying plate. The miso glaze is used sparingly, just enough to coat the fish with savory-sweet flavor without turning the dish into a calorie-dense sauce bomb.
This is a good one to keep in rotation for nights when you want something that feels indulgent but still fits comfortably into a calorie-conscious routine — it's quick enough for a weeknight and special enough for guests.
Ingredients
These ingredients are common at South Asian grocers; a well-stocked international supermarket usually carries them too.
