Instructions

  1. Fill a large pot with about 1 to 2 inches of water; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium so the water simmers.
  2. Meanwhile, in a cup or small bowl, combine 2 tbsp soy and 1 tbsp honey; brush over the fish.
  3. Line a steamer basket with banana leaves; place the fish in the steamer. Set the steamer over the simmering water; cover and steam the fish for about 3 minutes for medium or 6 minutes for well done.
  4. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high; add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add the carrots, Brussels sprouts, and peanuts; season with salt. Cook, stirring often, until the veggies soften, about 6 to 8 minutes.
  5. Combine the remaining 2 tbsp soy and 1 tbsp honey in a cup or small bowl; spoon over the vegetables. Cook, stirring a few times, until caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the pomegranate seeds and half the herbs.
  6. Divide the vegetables among 4 plates and top each plate with a piece of salmon; garnish each with some remaining herbs.
