This delightful salmon bowl recipe is packed with flavor, featuring marinated salmon served over a bed of rice or quinoa with fresh vegetables and creamy avocado.

Ingredients

Scale

12oz / 340g salmon fillets

2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce

2 teaspoons honey

1 teaspoon rice vinegar

½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil

1 garlic clove

small cube fresh ginger

1 cup cooked white rice or quinoa

1 medium cucumber

1 medium carrot

½ cup frozen edamame beans

½ avocado

optional garnish: spicy mayo

sriracha aioli

sesame seeds

green onions

Instructions

Slice salmon into large cubes (~ 1 inch / 2.5 cms in size). Remove the skin and any bones.
In a container, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and grated garlic and ginger to make the marinade.
Add the salmon cubes to the marinade and coat well. Let marinate for 10 minutes or a few hours in the fridge.
Prepare the vegetables by slicing the cucumber, shredding the carrot, and dicing the avocado.
Defrost the edamame beans by running them under water in a colander.
For pan-frying, heat a skillet on medium-high and lightly oil it. Cook the salmon cubes for 5-7 minutes, flipping halfway, and pour over leftover marinade.
For the air fryer method, preheat to 390℉ / 200℃ and oil the basket. Air fry salmon for 5-8 minutes, flipping halfway and brushing with marinade.
Assemble the bowls with rice, veggies, avocado, edamame, and cooked salmon. Drizzle with optional sauces and enjoy!

Notes

You can double the marinade recipe for an extra sauce to drizzle on top when serving.
