Ingredients
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh marjoram leaves
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves
- 4 bulbs baby bok choy
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
- 4 (6-ounce) portions salmon fillets
- 8 sprigs fresh marjoram
Directions
Preheat the oven to broil with the rack 6 to 8 inches below the lighted broiler plate.
Place the tomatoes, 1/4 cup of the olive oil, marjoram, lemon zest and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper, and the lemon juice in a 10-inch saute pan, saute quickly, and set in the oven on the rack. Cook until the tomatoes are well caramelized, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes. Add the basil to the vinaigrette and toss to blend. Set aside until ready to use.
Place the bok choy in a Dutch oven with the water and turn the heat up to high. When the water begins to boil, season the bok choy with 1 teaspoon of the salt and the 1/2 teaspoon white pepper. Place a lid on the pan and steam the bok choy until most of the liquid has evaporated and the bok choy is tender, about 6 to 7 minutes. Remove from the Dutch oven and slice each bulb in half lengthwise. Place the bok choy, cut side down, on a plate with the leaves in toward the center of the plate and the bulb ends facing towards the rim.
To cook the salmon, lay the fillets in a 12-inch saute pan and season with the remaining salt and remaining black pepper. Brush the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the salmon, arrange marjoram sprigs over top, and broil in the oven until the salmon is browned and cooked through, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the oven and lay the salmon on the bed of bok choy. Top with the tomato and lemon vinaigrette.

Thought it came together very easily and was delicious. Thinking about making it for entertaining. Could make the vinaigrette ahead of time and cook the salmon off early and only steam the bok choy right before serving. Used bok choy from my garden and it is difficult to clean and keep the bulbs whole.

We had this for dinner tonight and it was wonderful! The tomatoes were deliciously caramelized and worked amazingly with the salmon and bok choy. This was a really tasty and light dish - I'll definitely be making this again!

I just finished eating this and it was delicious! Instead of broiling the salmon in a separate dish, I slightly undercooked the tomatoes, threw the salmon in with them and put it back in the oven until done. Turned out moist and flavorful! Give this recipe a try, even if you're not the best cook!
