How to Make Honey Garlic Salmon Bowl

  • Begin by cooking jasmine rice according to package instructions, ensuring it turns fluffy and warm.
  • While the rice cooks, julienne the carrots, slice the cucumbers, mince the garlic, and rinse the baby spinach.
  • Allow your skinless salmon fillet to reach room temperature for about 10-15 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, honey, and the minced garlic; set aside.
  • Warm a skillet over medium-high heat and add avocado oil until it shimmers.
  • Gently season the salmon fillet with salt and pepper on both sides, then place it in the hot skillet.
  • Let the salmon cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes, until a golden crust forms.
  • Remove the skillet from heat and pour the honey garlic glaze over the salmon.
  • Start assembling by scooping the jasmine rice as the base, arranging the salmon on top with colorful veggies around it.
  • Drizzle any remaining sauce over the assembled bowl and garnish with sesame seeds and chopped chives if desired.

Notes
