Oh, I like complicated. I rarely make anything with fewer than seven ingredients. You should see the kind of things I make for holiday dinners. However, this one actually goes pretty quickly. Mix the marinade and get the salmon soaking. Get the rice cooked. Sear the salmon and get it into the oven. Get the vegetables for the rice cooked, scramble the egg, dump the veggies and rice back into the pan and cook that. By the time the salmon is done, so is the rice. If you want less complex, you can reduce the marinade to soy sauce, sake, OJ, garlic, and five spice powder, and then just bake the salmon. Fried rice doesn't really get any less complicated unless you have a two burner griddle or a wok, and then you can pull the veggies up out of the oil and heat and you don't have to set them aside. The trick with the broccoli is to steam it first, so you could do that in a microwave steamer, and the lemon juice in the steaming water keeps it from getting brown. I was just going for the minumum number of dishes. Two fry pans, a mixing bowl, and a spatula.
