Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Mix the sesame seeds with ¼ tsp. salt and pinch of ginger.

Season salmon with salt and pepper. Then press ½ tbsp. of sesame seed mixture on the top of each piece of salmon. Place on a cooking sheet lined with foil and sprayed with cooking spray. Place in the oven and cook for between 10-15 minutes depending on the thickness of your fish.

Meanwhile, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat in a skillet. Add the scallions and lemon slices cook for about 2 minutes until they start to become fragrant. Add the baby bok choy and cook for about 10 minutes until softened, stirring often. Season with salt and pepper.
