Description
A vibrant and healthful dish perfect for weeknight dinners or nourishing lunches, featuring grilled salmon, fluffy jasmine rice, and colorful veggies.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 salmon fillets
- 1 cup jasmine rice
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 1 cucumber, sliced
- 1 avocado, sliced
- Soy sauce, to taste
- Sesame oil
- Green onions, chopped
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by rinsing the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine the rice with water, bring it to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the water has been absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork and set it aside.
- While the rice is cooking, heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Brush it lightly with sesame oil and place the salmon fillets skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they’re cooked through and flaky.
- In the same pan, add the broccoli florets and julienned carrots. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they’re tender but still vibrant in color.
- To assemble your bowl, start with a serving of rice at the bottom. Layer on the grilled salmon, sautéed vegetables, cucumber slices, and sliced avocado. Drizzle with soy sauce and top with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
- Serve immediately and relish your homemade Asian Salmon Rice Bowl!
