Cooking Steps

Cook rice
1

Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Add 1 1/4 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl), broth concentrate and half the garlic salt to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, add rice, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min. Remove the pot from heat. Set aside, still covered.

Roast salmon
2

Meanwhile, pat salmon dry with paper towels. Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper. Arrange salmon on a parchment-lined baking sheet, skin-side down. Brush 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) over top. Roast salmon in the middle of the oven until cooked through, 10-12 min.**

Prep
3

Meanwhile, trim, then halve green beans. Thinly slice green onions.

Cook green beans
4

Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add green beans and 1/4 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until green beans are tender-crisp and liquid is absorbed, 4-5 min. Remove the pan from heat, then cover to keep warm.

Make sauce
5

Meanwhile, combine hoisin sauce, brown sugar and soy sauce in a small pot over low heat. (TIP: You can warm sauce in a microwave-safe bowl instead!) Season with pepper, then stir to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until warmed through, 1 min.

Finish and serve
6

Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in half the green onions. Divide rice, salmon and green beans between plates. Drizzle sauce over salmon. Sprinkle remaining green onions over top.

Customer reviews

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The brown sugar glaze is a standout, delivering a sweet and savoury combination that pairs well with the salmon. Some reviewers found the sauce too sweet or too strongly hoisin-forward, so consider using it in moderation.
  • Ease of prep: Most reviewers found this meal quick and straightforward, with several noting it comes together well under 30 minutes.
  • Suggestions: Add extra garlic salt to the snap peas and mix them directly into the rice for a more cohesive dish. Some reviewers suggest baking the glaze onto the salmon rather than drizzling it on after, for deeper flavour. Adding a small amount of butter when cooking the peas or rice can also boost richness.
  • Leftovers: Rice tends to cook in generous quantities, so expect leftovers; some reviewers enjoyed mixing the remaining sauce into the leftover rice.
  • Portions: The vegetable portion is consistently noted as too small relative to the rice; consider supplementing with broccoli, carrots, or zucchini for a more balanced plate.
