Ingredients
Scale
- 4 skinless salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 1/4 cup pure honey
- 3 tbsp sriracha sauce (adjust for spice preference)
- 2 cups cooked rice (white, brown, or jasmine)
- 1 cup assorted chopped vegetables (bell peppers, cucumbers, carrots)
- Juice of 1 lime
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 1 tbsp grated ginger
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger until smooth.
- Marinate the Salmon: Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Cook the Salmon: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Remove salmon from marinade (reserve) and cook skin-side down for about 4-5 minutes until slightly charred; flip to cook other side.
- Create Sauce Glaze: In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring reserved marinade to a simmer; cook for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Assemble Your Bowl: Prepare bowls with cooked rice as the base. Top with grilled salmon fillets and colorful vegetables.
- Add Finishing Touches: Drizzle remaining glaze over everything, squeeze fresh lime juice on top, and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
