Sesame Sriracha Grilled Salmon Nourish Bowl
Description
For the Sesame Sriracha Grilled Salmon Nourish Bowl, fresh salmon fillets are marinated in a combination of honey, olive oil, light soy sauce, minced garlic, BBQ sauce, lemon juice, and black pepper. This marinade imparts a sweet and tangy backbone with savory undertones. The salmon is refrigerated while marinating for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to penetrate.
The salmon is then grilled over medium-high heat for about 5 minutes per side, until cooked through but still moist and tender. Meanwhile, store-bought Sesame Sriracha Nourish Bowls are warmed according to package instructions to form the rice and vegetable base. The grilled salmon is plated on top and optionally sprinkled with sesame seeds for texture and visual appeal.
This dish balances the smoky, flavorful fish with the spicy, nutty notes of the nourish bowl. It fits well as a filling dinner or lunch, providing protein alongside seasoned rice and veggies. Cooking times and heat should be adjusted depending on salmon thickness and grill type to avoid overcooking.
Use a gas or charcoal grill and adjust cooking times according to salmon thickness for best results.The marinade offers a blend of sweet, umami, and tangy flavors that complement the mild salmon.Plan about 5 minutes per side for grilling typical 1-inch thick fillets, adding time for thicker cuts as needed.
Ingredients
- 2 pieces salmon fresh, about 1/2 pound each
- 2 (12 ounces) Mann's Sesame Sriracha Nourish Bowls
- sesame seeds optional, for garnish
Marinade:
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons BBQ sauce
- 2 teaspoons lemon juice
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Combine marinade ingredients in a small bowl.
- Add the salmon to a large Ziploc and pour the marinade over it. Gently coat the salmon in the marinade, and place it in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- When the salmon is almost done marinating, oil your BBQ/grill's grate and preheat it to high. Reduce heat to medium-high, and grill the salmon for 5 minutes per side, or until it's cooked through, taking care not to over-cook it.
- Meanwhile, follow package directions to warm your Sesame Sriracha Nourish Bowls in your microwave. Once warmed, transfer them to plates if desired.
- Serve the bowls with the salmon on top. Sprinkle the salmon with extra sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- Grill times depend on thickness and grill type; approximately 5 minutes per side works well for 1-inch thick salmon.
- Adjust marinade time and ingredients to balance sweet, savory, and tangy flavors for your taste.
- Oil grill grates well to prevent sticking and achieve even grilling.
