A generous layer of sesame seeds, adhered to the fillets with a simple swipe of soy sauce, adds toasty flavor and pops of crunchy texture to this weeknight-friendly salmon. Use a blend of black and white sesame seeds for an elegant two-toned crust, or stick with just one if that’s what you’ve got on hand. Paired with a crisp shaved carrot salad (easily prepped with a vegetable peeler) tossed in a zesty ginger-sesame vinaigrette, it’s a quick and satisfying meal that comes together in under 30 minutes.
