Description
A delicious and easy recipe for a Baked Salmon Sushi Bowl, perfect for a healthy meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups sushi rice
- 2 1/2 cups water
- 1 lb salmon fillet
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon ginger powder
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1/4 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- Pickled ginger, for serving
- Wasabi, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Rinse the sushi rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Combine the rice and water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
- While the rice is cooking, prepare the salmon. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Place the salmon fillet on the prepared baking sheet and brush the marinade over the top.
- Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before flaking it into bite-sized pieces.
- Fluff the cooked sushi rice with a fork and divide it among serving bowls. Top each bowl with flaked salmon, avocado slices, cucumber, shredded carrots, and green onions.
- Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top and serve with pickled ginger and wasabi on the side.
Notes
- For added flavor, try marinating the salmon for 30 minutes before baking.
- You can substitute the salmon with cooked shrimp or tofu for a different protein option.
- For a spicy kick, add sriracha or spicy mayo on top of the bowl.
