Instructions
- Set up sous vide water bath, and set the temperature of the sous vide to 123.8°F.
- Generously salt and pepper salmon fillets.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, mix sesame oil, olive oil, ginger, and honey.
- In a quart-sized freezer-safe zip bag, add seasoned filets and seasoning mixture.
- Using the water displacement method, seal and sous vide at 123.8°F for 20 minutes.
- While the fish is cooking, prepare soba noodles according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium-high heat, heat grapeseed oil.
- Stir-fry garlic and broccoli until soft, about 6-8 minutes.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together tahini, sesame oil, olive oil, lime juice, green onions, cilantro, and toasted sesame seeds.
- Mix into cooked and drained soba noodles, and toss in stir-fried broccoli and garlic.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Place a piece of parchment paper on the bottom of the skillet (the parchment paper will keep the skin from sticking to the pan).

- Sear until skin is crisp, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
- Divide soba noodles into two bowls; top with salmon, sesame seeds, and a lime wedge.
