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

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Cook the Edamame:

    • Cook frozen shelled edamame according to package instructions. I usually microwave them in a bowl for about 30 seconds.

  5. 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.

  6. 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.
