Ingredients
4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
2 cups cooked jasmine rice
1 cup fresh spinach leaves
1 avocado, sliced
1 cup shredded carrots
1 cup sliced cucumber
4 green onions, sliced
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Brush the fillets with teriyaki sauce, reserving some for later.
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Sear the salmon fillets, skin-side down, for about 3-4 minutes, or until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for another 2 minutes.
- Transfer the salmon to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
- In the meantime, prepare the bowls by dividing the cooked jasmine rice among four bowls. Top with fresh spinach leaves, shredded carrots, sliced cucumber, and avocado slices.
- Once the salmon is done, place a fillet in each bowl. Drizzle with the reserved teriyaki sauce and sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
Add other vegetables like edamame, bell peppers, or radishes for extra flavor and nutrition.
