Ginger Peanut Salmon, Spicy Basmati, and Broccoli

The main attraction for me when I set in to cook this food was the craving for fresh ginger root, green jalapeno, scallion, and garlic. So, simple fish, rice, and vegetables seemed in order for the evening.
This is what I came up with:

(Full recipe available upon request):

Finely chopped ginger root, jalapeno, and garlic tenderized in canola oil before merging in the same pan with my load of basmati rice. I finished the pan off with a thick peanut sauce - just enough to smear some of the rice and lend a nutty thickness. I wanted the rice to be heavily flavored. Lastly the scallion or green onion was tossed in.
I kept the salmon simple and flaky, and the broccoli still a bit crunchy. It was as simple as that. The aroma hovering throughout the kitchen was lovely!
