Ingredients:
8 oz. salmon, diced in 1” cubes
sesame oil
1 Tbsp. soy sauce, and
1/2 tsp. of ginger powder
1 small cucumber, sliced
1 tsp. avocado oil
1 carrot, peeled and curled
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 cup of frozen shelled edamame
1 cup rice
1 ½ cups broth or water
2 Tbsp mayonnaise + 2 tsp Sriracha (for topping)
Sesame seeds (for topping)
Directions
Marinate the Salmon:
In a bowl, combine a few drops of sesame oil, soy sauce, and ginger powder.
Add the diced salmon and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes. You can use kitchen scissors to cut the salmon easily.
Cook the Rice:
Rinse the rice under cold water.
In a pot, bring 1 ½ cups broth or water to a boil.
Add rice, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed.
Fluff with a fork and set aside.
Prepare the Sriracha Mayo:
Mix 1 tablespoon mayonnaise with 1 teaspoon Sriracha until smooth. Add more Sriracha if you want it to be extra spicy.
Cook the Edamame:
Cook frozen shelled edamame according to package instructions. I usually microwave them in a bowl for about 30 seconds.
Cook the Salmon:
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the marinated salmon in avocado oil until just cooked through (about 3-4 minutes per side). Set aside.
Assemble the Bowl:
Spoon the cooked rice into bowls.
Top with cooked salmon, cucumber slices, curled carrot, red bell pepper slices, and edamame.
Drizzle with the Sriracha mayo.
Garnish with sesame seeds.
