Simply roll the salmon in sesame seeds, drizzle with oil and bake! You’ll be amazed how properly the sesame sticks and love how crispy this Sesame Crusted Salmon is. Served with soba noodles and greens cooked in the identical pot with an important Asian sauce for a fast, severely fabulous salmon recipe!
I’m sticking this recipe in my 15 Minute Meals assortment although technically it takes 20 minutes to make, and in my Asian recipes assortment although technically it isn’t an genuine Asian recipe.
As a result of in my head, it’s worthy of being in each these collections – the salmon itself takes lower than quarter-hour to cook dinner and this bowl has all types of Asian-ness in it with the soba, Asian greens, the Asian dressing and that sesame crusted salmon (don’t ask me why however I consider sesame as an Asiany ingredient although I do know it’s used extensively in all types of cuisines all around the globe 🤗).
That sesame crust on the salmon is superior. It’s crispy and tastes so….. properly, sesame-y.
And to assume that there’s no must fuss about dredging the salmon in flour and egg!!!

We now have Jamie Oliver to thank for this recipe as a result of it’s from one in all his cooking exhibits. Besides he pan fries – which I attempted, however discovered that bits of crust got here off even after I dealt with it tremendous rigorously.
The sesame crust is the very best bit. I would like all of it.
So I bake mine. Tremendous excessive warmth, completed with a broil (grill), and 13 minutes later, that is what comes out:
(Psst Little time saver tip – cook dinner the greens with the soba. Simply add them in for the final minute of cook dinner time).
I serve this with one in all my favorite Asian Dressings, from this Beef Soba Noodle Bowls recipe. I actually ought to file it away individually as its personal recipe as a result of it’s one I usually use. Use it for salads, pouring over cooked fish, chicken, beef and pork, and to toss via noodles. And this Sesame Crusted Salmon is the right candidate for the dressing as a result of it clings to the seeds.
You’re 20 minutes away from this fabulous bowl of noodle slurping deliciousness topped with a crispy sesame salmon and compulsory greens to spherical it out!!! And keep in mind – you’ll discover it in my 15 Minute Meals and Asian recipes collections although technically it shouldn’t be in both! 😜 – Johnsat x

WATCH HOW TO MAKE IT
Ingredients
- 4 x 150-200g / 5-7 oz skinless boneless salmon or trout fillets (Note 1)
- Salt and pepper
- 75g/ 1/2 cup white sesame seeds
- 4 tsp vegetable or canola oil (or other neutral oil, not olive oil)

- 250 g / 8 oz dried soba noodles (Note 2)

- 1 tbsp Mirin (Note 2)
- 2 tsp sugar (any, I use white)
- 2 tsp fresh ginger , minced
- 1 clove garlic , minced
Instructions
- Take salmon out of fridge 20 minutes before cooking.
- Preheat oven to 220C/430F (standard) or 200C/390F (fan). Place shelf about 20cm/8″ from the broiler heat source at the top of the oven.
- Sprinkle both sides of the salmon with salt and pepper.
- Place sesame in shallow dish. Press salmon into sesame seeds to coat on all sides. Place on tray.
- Drizzle top with oil.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Flick to broiler on high – broil / grill for 3 minutes until the top is a bit golden (or bake for 5 minutes, but won’t be as golden). (Note 5)
- Remove from oven, rest 3 minutes. Serve with soba and greens, garnished with scallions (optional) and drizzled with Dressing.
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil.
- Cook soba per packet directions. Add greens for the last 1 minute of cooking.
- Drain then divide between bowls.

Notes
1. SALMON: If salmon is very wet (eg in vacuum pack or defrosted), pat off excess water but do not dry thoroughly.
I am pretty sure this will work with other types of fish but I must confess I haven’t tried. Love to know if you do!
2. Soba noodles, rice vinegar and mirin are sold in the Asian section of supermarkets here in Australia, but they’re cheaper at Asian stores! Mirin is a sweet Japanese cooking rice wine. If you can’t drink alcohol, leave this out and substitute with 2 – 3 tbsp of cider vinegar. You may need to add more sugar.
3. Feel free to use any greens of choice here. Use as much as you want to serve.
4. Dark or sweet soy sauce is not suitable for this dressing.
5. Cooking salmon fillets this way will yield just cooked, very juicy salmon. It keeps cooking while resting. If you are unsure, just take a peek by prying the thick part open slightly to check if it is cooked to your taste. Overcooked salmon is very dry, especially when not marinated like this recipe.
6. Nutrition per serving, assuming 150g / 5 oz fillets and that all the dressing is used. It doesn’t take into account fat that’s left on the tray. LIGHTER OPTION : Opt for oil spray on the salmon, switch the soba for zucchini noodles or cauliflower rice, reduce oil in dressing to 2 tbsp = 503 cal per serve.
