  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Salmon and Marinade

  • 4 salmon filets (4-6 ounces each)
  • 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 3 tablespoons water

Bowl Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 cucumber, sliced
  • 1 cup edamame, cooked
  • 1/2 cup sriracha mayo
  • Red pepper flakes (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • Oil for cooking (such as vegetable or canola oil)

Instructions

  1. Cut salmon: Cut your salmon into 1-inch cubes. You can remove the skin if desired, but it’s optional.
  2. Whisk marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together low sodium soy sauce or tamari, honey, sriracha, minced garlic, and water until well combined.
  3. Marinate salmon: Add the cubed salmon to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Marinate for at least 20 minutes, up to 1 hour for more flavor.
  4. Heat pan: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a splash of oil to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook salmon: Place the marinated salmon cubes in the hot skillet, searing them for 2-3 minutes on each side to develop a nice crispy texture and cook through.
  6. Add sauce: Pour the remaining marinade into the skillet with the salmon and cook until the sauce thickens and coats the salmon beautifully.
  7. Assemble bowls: Divide cooked white rice among four bowls. Top each with the honey sriracha salmon, sliced avocado, cucumber, and cooked edamame.
  8. Serve: Drizzle sriracha mayo over the bowls and garnish with red pepper flakes and sesame seeds for an extra kick and crunch. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Marinating the salmon longer enhances flavor but do not exceed 1 hour to prevent texture breakdown.
  • Keep the skin on the salmon if you prefer for added texture and nutrients.
  • You can substitute white rice with brown rice or quinoa for a healthier variation.
  • Sriracha mayo can be homemade by mixing mayonnaise with sriracha in desired proportions.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha to control the heat level to your preference.
