Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs salmon fillets, skin removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp sriracha
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar or lime juice
  • 1 tbsp neutral oil (avocado or grapeseed)
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
  • 1 ripe avocado, sliced
  • 1 medium cucumber, sliced or diced
  • 1 cup shelled edamame, thawed if frozen
  • 0.25 cup sriracha mayonnaise
  • Toasted sesame seeds, green onions, red pepper flakes for garnish

Equipment

  • Large Skillet (Non-stick or Cast Iron) Essential for getting a good sear on the salmon.
  • mixing bowls For marinating and prepping ingredients.

Method
 

  1. In a bowl, whisk soy sauce, honey, sriracha, garlic, and vinegar. Pat salmon cubes dry, add to marinade, and toss. Marinate for 15-20 minutes.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove salmon from marinade (reserve marinade) and add to skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and crispy.
  3. Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet with the salmon. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring, for 1-2 minutes until sauce thickens into a glaze.
  4. Divide rice among bowls. Top with glazed salmon, avocado slices, cucumber, and edamame.
  5. Drizzle with sriracha mayo and garnish with sesame seeds, green onions, and red pepper flakes. Serve immediately.

Notes

Pro Tips: For the crispiest salmon, pat the cubes completely dry with paper towels before marinating. Get your skillet nice and hot over medium-high heat before adding the salmon to ensure a good sear. Don't overcrowd the pan—cook in batches if necessary. The sauce will thicken quickly once added to the hot pan; cook for just 1-2 minutes until glossy. For a hands-off method, cook the marinated salmon in an air fryer at 400°F for 7-9 minutes.
