Description
A healthy and flavorful salmon rice bowl with fresh vegetables and a savory sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 salmon fillets
- 1 cup sushi rice
- 2 cups water
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1/2 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1/4 cup edamame
- 1/4 cup shredded carrots
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Rinse the sushi rice until the water runs clear. Cook the rice with 2 cups of water according to package directions.
- While the rice is cooking, prepare the salmon. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Steam or lightly boil the broccoli florets until tender-crisp.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the marinated salmon for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky.
- Assemble the bowls. Divide the cooked rice into two bowls.
- Top the rice with the cooked salmon, broccoli, sliced red bell pepper, edamame, and shredded carrots.
- Drizzle any remaining marinade over the bowls.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the marinade.
- You can substitute other vegetables like cucumber, avocado, or snap peas.
- Ensure the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness.
