Chef's Note

For the best flavor, you can marinate the salmon in half of the sauce mixture for 10 minutes before cooking if time allows. The remaining sauce can be drizzled over the finished bowls. To save even more time, use pre-cooked microwaveable brown rice.

Ingredients

  • 16 oz salmon fillets

  • 1 cup brown rice

  • 3 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp honey

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

  • 2 tsp sesame oil

  • 2 cloves garlic

  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger

  • 2 cups broccoli florets

  • 2 medium carrots

  • 1 medium avocado

  • 3 stalks green onions

  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions
  • 1

    Begin by cooking 1 cup of brown rice according to package instructions. This typically takes about 15 minutes in a rice cooker or 25-30 minutes on the stovetop.

  • 2

    While the rice cooks, mince 2 cloves of garlic and grate 1 tbsp of fresh ginger.

  • 3

    In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp of low-sodium soy sauce, 1 tbsp of honey, 1 tbsp of rice vinegar, 2 tsp of sesame oil, the minced garlic, and grated ginger to make the marinade/sauce.

  • 4

    Pat 16 oz of salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season with 1/2 tsp of salt and 1/4 tsp of black pepper.

  • 5

    Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the salmon skin-side down and cook for about 4 minutes until crispy.

  • 6

    Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes until it reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and set aside.

  • 7

    In the same pan, add the 2 cups of broccoli florets and 2 sliced medium carrots. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.

  • 8

    Slice 1 medium avocado and chop 3 stalks of green onions.

  • 9

    To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked brown rice between two bowls. Top with the salmon fillets and stir-fried vegetables.

  • 10

    Add sliced avocado and sprinkle with chopped green onions and 1 tbsp of sesame seeds.

  • 11

    Drizzle any remaining sauce over the bowls and serve immediately.
