Method
Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium heat. Season both sides of salmon with sea salt and pepper. Cook, covered, about 6 minutes or just until done. Cut salmon into 1/2-inch wide strips; set aside. Meanwhile, in a bowl whisk together mayonnaise, Ponzu sauce, juice, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes until combined. In the same skillet heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat. Add bok choy, onion, edamame, garlic, and ginger. Saute until bok choy is just tender. Pour the mayonnaise mixture and broth into the skillet. Saute about 4 minutes more or until all vegetables are coated with the sauce. Add nori and spaghetti; heat through. Remove from heat. To serve, top each portion of the spaghetti-vegetable mixture with 3 to 4 slices of cooked salmon. Garnish with lime.
Notes: This is a fresh and fantastically healthy low fat entree. You and your family will love it!
