Salty and sweet are classic buddies in the culinary world. Both flavors augment and complement each other in a way that has to be tasted to be described. Here, we take sugary caramel and the salty deepness of soy and mold them together to flavor this chicken with perfectly balanced flavor. Best friends forever.

If using salmon fillets, pat dry and season flesh side with a pinch of salt and pepper. Follow same instructions as chicken in Step 2, cooking, skin side up first, until salmon reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes per side.

If using tuna, follow same instructions as chicken in Steps 1 and 2, cooking until tuna reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-5 minutes per side. Tuna is often enjoyed medium-rare (pink in the middle). For medium-rare, cook 1-2 minutes per side. Consuming raw or undercooked tuna may increase your risk for food-borne illness.

Bok choy can retain some grit, even after washing. To completely clean, hold upside down in a bowl of water. Shake slightly to release the grit. Remove any discolored outer leaves from bok choy and trim ends. Cut stems into 1/2" slices and coarsely chop leaves.
Cut broccoli into bite-sized pieces.Mince garlic.Pat chicken breasts dry, and season both sides with a pinch of salt and pepper. -
