These 10-minute roasted salmon rice bowls and made with bite sized pieces of honey-sriracha salmon, cucumbers and avocado. So delicious!

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha, plus more for serving
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce, or gluten-free tamari
  • 2 teaspoons minced or grated fresh ginger
  • 1 ½ pounds skinless salmon filets
  • 3 Persian cucumbers, thinly sliced, or ⅓ English cucumber, cut into thin half-moons
  • 1 ½ teaspoons rice vinegar, plus more as needed
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 3 cups cooked short-grain brown rice
  • 4 ounces avocado, from 1 small haas, thinly sliced
  • Furikake seasoning, or sesame seeds, for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat the broiler with a rack about 6 inches below it. Line a rimmed baking sheet with nonstick foil.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the honey, sriracha, soy sauce, and ginger; stir with a fork until the honey dissolves.
  3. Cut the salmon into 1-inch cubes and  place them on the baking sheet, leaving a bit of space between each piece.
  4. Brush the salmon with the glaze and cook under the broiler for 3 to 4 minutes, or until it’s easily flaked with a fork and golden on top.
  5. Meanwhile, combine the sliced cucumber with the rice vinegar, sesame oil, and salt.
  6. Place 3/4 cup rice in each bowl. Divide and top with salmon, sliced avocado, cucumber, and a drizzle of sriracha, if desired, plus a sprinkle of furikake seasoning.
  7. If you’d like a little more acidity, add just a dash of rice vinegar.
