Base

Method

Prepare Rice

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of white rice with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Let it simmer for about 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Fluff the Rice

    After the rice has rested, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Set aside to cool slightly.

Prepare Toppings

  1. 3

    Slice the Vegetables

    While the rice is cooking, dice the mango, slice the avocado, and thinly slice the cucumber. Set aside.

  2. 4

    Prepare Pickled Onions

    If you do not have pre-made pickled onions, you can quickly pickle red onions by soaking thinly sliced onions in a mixture of equal parts vinegar and water for 15-30 minutes.

Prepare Protein

  1. 5

    Cook Protein

    If using salmon, shrimp, or ahi tuna, cook according to your preference. For salmon, grill or pan-sear until cooked through. For shrimp, sauté in a pan with a little oil until pink and opaque. For ahi tuna, sear quickly on high heat for a rare finish.

  2. 6

    Glaze with Teriyaki

    Once cooked, drizzle with teriyaki sauce to glaze the protein. Set aside.

Assemble Bowl

  1. 7

    Layer the Ingredients

    In a bowl, start with a base of the cooked white rice. Arrange the diced mango, sliced avocado, cucumber, pickled onions, and crispy onion strips on top of the rice.

  2. 8

    Add Protein

    Place the teriyaki glazed salmon, shrimp, or ahi tuna on top of the arranged toppings.

Serve

  1. 9

    Final Touch

    Drizzle additional teriyaki sauce over the entire bowl for extra flavor, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy your poke bowl!
