Description

A customizable salmon bowl recipe that can be served over rice or greens.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound salmon fillet
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 cups cooked rice or mixed greens
  • 1/2 cup chopped cucumber
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/4 cup sliced red onion
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the salmon fillet on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  4. While the salmon bakes, prepare your base. If using rice, ensure it is cooked and warm. If using greens, place them in your serving bowls.
  5. Once the salmon is cooked, flake it into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Assemble your bowls: Add the flaked salmon over your chosen base (rice or greens).
  7. Top with cucumber, carrots, and red onion.
  8. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to make the dressing.
  9. Drizzle the dressing over the salmon bowls.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add avocado, edamame, or a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
