Description

Honey Sriracha Salmon Bowls are a vibrant and flavorful dish combining tender, marinated salmon with a spicy-sweet glaze, served over fluffy white rice with fresh avocado, crisp cucumber, and protein-packed edamame. Topped with creamy sriracha mayo and garnished with sesame seeds and red pepper flakes, this quick and easy meal is perfect for a healthy weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Salmon and Marinade

  • 4 salmon filets (4-6 ounces each)
  • 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 3 tablespoons water

Bowl Components

  • 2 cups cooked white rice
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 1 cucumber, sliced
  • 1 cup cooked edamame
  • 1/2 cup sriracha mayo
  • Red pepper flakes, for garnish
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cut salmon: Cut your salmon into 1 inch cubes. You may remove the skin if preferred, or leave it on for added texture and flavor.
  2. Whisk marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together soy sauce or tamari, honey, sriracha, minced garlic, and water to create the marinade.
  3. Marinate salmon: Add the cubed salmon to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 20 minutes, up to 1 hour for more intense flavor.
  4. Heat pan: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with a splash of oil to prevent sticking and promote crisping.
  5. Cook salmon: Add the salmon cubes to the hot skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes on each side to develop a nice crisp exterior.
  6. Add sauce: Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet with the salmon and cook until the sauce thickens and glazes the fish.
  7. Assemble bowls: Start with a bed of cooked white rice, then top with the cooked salmon, sliced avocado, cucumber, and edamame. Drizzle with sriracha mayo for creaminess and heat.
  8. Serve: Garnish the bowls with a sprinkle of red pepper flakes and sesame seeds for added flavor and crunch. Enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Marinating the salmon for longer enhances the flavor but do not exceed 1 hour to avoid texture breakdown.
  • You can use brown rice or quinoa as a nutritious alternative to white rice.
  • Adjust the amount of sriracha in the marinade and mayo to control the spiciness of the bowls.
  • For a gluten-free version, ensure soy sauce is tamari or gluten-free.
  • Skin-on salmon adds a crispy texture when cooked; remove if preferred.
