Salmon Bowls
Report
The BEST Salmon Bowl recipe is quick to make, healthy, and incredibly fresh! A teriyaki salmon fillet is cooked in the air fryer (or grill/oven), set on top of a bed of rice, and topped with avocado, cucumber, mango, edamame, green onions, and cilantro.
Share:
Ingredients
- 5 salmon fillets , 4-6oz each
- 2 cups dry jasmine rice (or use white rice, sushi rice, brown rice, or coconut rice)
- 1 1/2 cups edamame , shelled
- 1 English cucumber , sliced
- 6 green onions , chopped
- 2 mangos , peeled and cubed
- 2 avocados , peeled, seeded and cubed
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Sriracha mayo* for topping (optional)
Teriyaki Sauce:
- ½ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 Tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
- 1/4 cup + 1 Tablespoon light brown sugar
- 1 Tablespoon honey
- ¾ teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 clove garlic , minced
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch+ 2 tsp water , mixed together to make a cornstarch slurry
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Make Teriyaki Sauce (can made and refrigerated several days ahead): Add all of the sauce ingredients to a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and boil for about 1 minute. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the back of the spoon. Allow to cool.
- Marinate Salmon: Pour 1/4 cup of the teriyaki sauce over the raw salmon and set aside to marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to overnight.
- Cook rice according to package instructions.
- Cook Salmon: (I prefer the air fryer, but see baking and grilling instructions in notes.) Preheat air fryer to 400ºF. Spray basket with non-stick spray and place salmon filets inside. Air fry for about 5-7 minutes, or until cooked through (flakes easily with a fork, or about 125-135 degrees if testing with a thermometer).
- Assemble Salmon Bowls: Divide rice among the bowls and top with a piece of teriyaki salmon, some avocado, edamame, mango and cucumber.
- Garnish: Drizzle teriyaki and sriracha mayo over the top and garnish with chopped green onion and cilantro.
Equipments used:
Notes
- Sriracha Mayo: Mix 1/4 cup mayonnaise with 1.5 Tablespoons Sriracha. I love Kewpie Japanese Mayo.
- Baked Salmon: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Remove salmon from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off and place on a lined baking sheet. Bake for 7-9 minutes, just until cooked through.
- Grilled Salmon: Leave the salmon filets whole. Remove the salmon from the marinade and place skin side down on grill over medium heat. Close lid and cook for about 6 minutes. Flip the salmon flesh side down onto the well-oiled grill and cook for another 3-4 more minutes or until the salmon reaches 145 degrees F. Remove to a plate.
- Variations:
- Gluten-free Adaptations: use gluten-free soy sauce.
- Low Carb: Sub cauliflower rice
- Vegetarian: Use tofu—cook in air fryer until crisp and then toss in teriyaki sauce.
- More Veggies: Try adding bell pepper, steamed broccolini, and sautéed zucchini.
