Salmon Bowl Recipe

Preparation Steps

1. 1

   Cook the Rice

   Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Cook the rice according to package instructions, typically using a 1:1.5 rice-to-water ratio, bringing to a boil then simmering for 15-20 minutes until tender. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

2. 2

   Prepare the Salmon

   Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium heat. Brush the salmon fillets with teriyaki sauce and grill or pan-sear for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky. Brush with additional teriyaki sauce during cooking for extra flavor.

3. 3

   Pickle the Cucumbers

   Thinly slice the cucumber and place in a bowl. In a small bowl, mix equal parts rice vinegar and sugar (about 1/4 cup each). Pour over the cucumber slices and let them pickle for at least 10 minutes.

4. 4

   Make Carrot Slaw

   Grate the carrot using a grater or food processor. Toss with a bit of salt and sesame oil to taste. Set aside.

5. 5

   Prepare Sriracha Mayo

   In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and sriracha sauce. Adjust the amount of sriracha to your taste.

6. 6

   Assemble the Bowl

   In a bowl, layer the cooked jasmine rice, topped with the teriyaki salmon, pickled cucumbers, carrot slaw, sliced avocado, crispy onions, and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Drizzle with sriracha mayo before serving.
