**Instructions:**

**1. Prepare the Marinade:**
– In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Whisk until the honey is dissolved.
– Reserve about 1/4 cup of the marinade in a separate bowl for later use as a glaze.
– Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag. Pour the remaining marinade over the salmon, ensuring each fillet is coated. Cover or seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.

**2. Cook the Rice:**
– Rinse 1 cup of jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
– In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water or broth. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.
– Once boiling, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes. Do not lift the lid.
– After 15 minutes, remove from heat and let sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and keep warm.

**3. Prepare the Vegetables:**
– In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
– Add broccoli florets and snap peas, seasoning with salt and pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp. Remove from heat and set aside.

**4. Cook the Salmon:**
– Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat, oiling the grates if using a grill.
– Remove the salmon from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the used marinade.
– In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
– Brush the reserved marinade over the salmon fillets. Place salmon on the grill, skin-side down if applicable. Cook for 4-5 minutes.
– Flip the salmon, brush more reserved marinade on the cooked side, and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through (internal temperature should reach 145°F/63°C).
– In the last minute, add the cornstarch slurry to the reserved marinade, stirring until it thickens slightly. Drizzle over the salmon.

**5. Assemble the Dish:**
– To serve, place a scoop of jasmine rice on each plate, arrange sautéed broccoli and snap peas alongside, and top with a salmon fillet.
– Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.

**Notes:**
– For a spicier kick, consider adding red pepper flakes to the marinade.
– This dish pairs well with a side of pickled vegetables for added crunch and flavor.
