This fresh and flavorful recipe combines nutrient-rich salmon and bright and crisp-tender vegetables with a homemade teriyaki sauce. It promises to satisfy any craving for an Asian-inspired stir-fry—without ordering in.

Stir-frying is a method of quickly searing and cooking bite-size pieces of protein and vegetables in a splash of oil over high heat. A light sauce, such as teriyaki, is often added to create a salty-sweet coating that bastes the ingredients. Once you have the ingredients assembled, the dish quickly comes together. While you can substitute a store-bought teriyaki sauce for added convenience, note that many prepared sauces have high sugar and salt contents.
