Cooking the dish according to the recipe:

Lime rice:

Cook rice according to package directions and keep warm.
Salmon:

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil and heat until shimmering. Add the fish, flesh side down, and fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes.

Sticky soy glaze:

Combine honey, soy sauce, vinegar, ginger, garlic, and lime juice in a bowl. Turn the fish over and pour the soy mixture into the bottom of the pan. Bring the soy mixture to a boil and spoon it over the salmon while it cooks until done, 5-7 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a pot of water with a steamer basket to a boil over high heat. Add the broccoli, cover, and steam until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
Transfer the fish to a plate. Add the lime wedges to the pan and simmer over low heat until the glaze becomes very sticky, about 3 more minutes.
Add lime zest to the rice and toss. Transfer to a serving platter. Arrange the broccolini on top of the rice, add the fish, glaze, and lime wedges, then sprinkle with cilantro.
