A delicious and healthy Salmon Bowl packed with protein, fresh vegetables, and customizable toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb Salmon fillets (skin-on or skinless)
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce (low-sodium if preferred)
- 1 tbsp Honey (or brown sugar)
- 1 clove Garlic (minced)
- 1 tsp Sesame oil (toasted)
- 1 tsp Rice vinegar (optional for tanginess)
- 1 cup Jasmine rice (or brown rice or quinoa)
- 2 cups Water (or chicken broth for extra flavor)
- 1 pinch Salt (optional for seasoning rice)
- 1 Avocado (sliced)
- ½ cup Cucumber (diced)
- ½ cup Edamame (shelled)
- ½ cup Carrots (julienned or shredded)
- 2 Green onions (chopped)
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (for garnish)
- ¼ cup Mayonnaise (regular or light)
- 1–2 tsp Sriracha (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp Soy sauce
- 1 tbsp Lime juice (fresh squeezed)
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Pickled ginger
- 1 tbsp Nori strips
- ¼ cup Seaweed salad
- 2 Radishes (thinly sliced)
Instructions
- Rinse the rice until the water runs clear. Cook according to package directions using water or broth and a pinch of salt. Let it rest while you prepare the rest of the bowl.
- Mix soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, sesame oil, and rice vinegar in a bowl. Cut the salmon into bite-sized cubes and toss with the marinade. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
- Dice the cucumber, julienne or shred the carrots, and chop the green onions. Slice the avocado just before serving.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated salmon and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, until golden and flaky. Avoid stirring too much to keep the pieces intact.
- Combine mayonnaise, sriracha, soy sauce, lime juice, and sesame oil in another bowl. Adjust the spiciness and acidity to your taste.
- Assemble the bowl starting with a base of rice. Top it with the cooked salmon and your choice of vegetables. Drizzle with the sauce, sprinkle sesame seeds, and add any optional garnishes.
Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge. It’s best to keep the salmon and fresh vegetables separate from the rice to prevent sogginess. Enjoy within 2 days for the best taste.
