- Soak or cook the rice noodles according to the package until just tender, drain, rinse with cold water and set aside.
- Make the sauce: whisk the soy sauce, honey, lime juice, water, cornstarch and toasted sesame oil in a small bowl.
- Pat the salmon dry. Heat half of the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the salmon pieces about 2 minutes per side until browned and cooked to 145°F (63°C); transfer to a plate.
- Add the remaining half of the canola oil to the skillet, then the red onion, red bell pepper and green bell pepper; stir-fry 4 minutes until crisp-tender.
- Add the ginger and garlic and stir 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the noodles, stir the sauce and pour it in; toss 1 to 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the noodles.
- Return the salmon to the skillet and gently fold it in so the pieces stay mostly whole.
- Serve topped with the sesame seeds and cilantro.
