Ingredients

Scale

Salmon

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

Bowls

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1 cucumber, sliced
  • 1 cup cooked edamame
  • ½ cup sriracha mayo

Garnish (optional)

  • Red pepper flakes
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. Prepare Salmon: Cut your salmon fillets into 1-inch cubes and remove the skin if preferred. Using kitchen shears can simplify skin removal.
  2. Make Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce or tamari, honey, sriracha, minced garlic, and water until fully combined.
  3. Marinate Salmon: Add the salmon cubes to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes and up to 1 hour to develop rich flavor.
  4. Cook Salmon: Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of oil. Add the salmon cubes in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook each side for 2-3 minutes until cooked through and nicely seared. The salmon should flake easily with a fork.
  5. Thicken Sauce: Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet with the cooked salmon and simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the salmon beautifully.
  6. Assemble Bowls: Place cooked white rice at the base of each bowl. Top with the honey sriracha salmon, diced avocado, sliced cucumber, and cooked edamame.
  7. Drizzle with Sauce and Garnish: Drizzle sriracha mayo over the assembled bowls and sprinkle with red pepper flakes and sesame seeds to add an extra kick and texture.
  8. Serve: Serve immediately to enjoy the dish at its freshest and most flavorful.

Notes

  • Marinating the salmon in the refrigerator enhances flavor and ensures food safety.
  • Do not overcrowd the skillet to allow the salmon to sear properly instead of steaming.
  • You can adjust the amount of sriracha mayo to suit your spice preference.
  • If skin removal is difficult, using kitchen shears can help.
  • Cook salmon in batches if needed to maintain the best texture and sear.
