This flexible meal is in a class of its own. It can be served as lunch or dinner, and it can be enjoyed hot or cold. It’s especially nice to have a cooling noodle-y option like this in the midst of the summer heat. On scorching days, a hot cooked meal just doesn’t seem as enticing. So, we came up with a delicious and invigorating solution: a Sesame Ginger Soba Noodle Bowl with Salmon.
How to make a Sesame Ginger Soba Noodle Bowl with Salmon.
For this recipe, we wanted ease and approachability; minimal prep, short cook time, and accessible, convenient ingredients. The flavor profile in this bowl suggests effort—it’s just so good. But we’re happy to say this dish couldn’t be easier to assemble.
Here’s what you’ll need:
- Chicken of the Sea’s Wild Catch™ Alaskan Salmon, drained
- Soba noodles
- Cucumbers
- Edamame (optional)
- Scallions
- Sesame seeds
- Sesame oil
- Low-sodium soy sauce
- Water
- Rice vinegar
- Grated ginger
Here’s what you’ll do:
- Cook the soba noodles as per the instructions on the package. When done, drain, run under cold water and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sauce ingredients until well combined.
- Transfer the soba noodles back to the pot they were boiled in (or to a mixing bowl) and drizzle half of the sauce over the noodles; toss to evenly coat the noodles.
- Add the drained Alaskan salmon, cucumbers, edamame, and scallions to the noodles. Drizzle the rest of the sauce over the contents; toss to coat, while also mixing all of the ingredients into the noodles.
- Evenly distribute between two bowls and garnish with sesame seeds.
Chicken of the Sea’s Wild Catch Atlantic Salmon is the perfect protein.
In order to make this a hearty and satisfying meal, we knew protein was a must—and Chicken of the Sea’s Wild Catch™ Atlantic Salmon was a shoo-in. With 23 grams of protein per container, this good stuff is packed in nothing but water and sea salt giving it an incredibly clean flavor, making it a great alternative to chicken
