1. Combine the oyster sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, chilli, ginger, 1 tablespoon of the vinegar and the salmon in a glass or ceramic bowl. Cover and marinate in the fridge for 20 minutes.
2. Preheat the oven grill to high.
3. Place the salmon, skin-side down, on a baking tray and spoon over the marinade. Cook under the grill for 5 minutes for medium or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
4. Meanwhile, place the broccoli and snow peas in a heatproof bowl. Cover with boiling water, and stand for 1 minute or until the broccoli is just wilted. Drain and refresh under cold running water. Return to the bowl. Add the zucchini, spring onion, avocado and remaining vinegar and gently toss to combine.
5. Divide the zucchini mixture among serving plates. Top with the salmon and serve with lime wedges.
