  • Author: Leo
  • Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

For the Salmon:
– 4 salmon fillets
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon honey
– 1 teaspoon sriracha (or more for extra spice)
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste

For the Coconut Rice:
– 1 cup jasmine rice
– 1 cup coconut milk
– 1 cup water
– 1 tablespoon sugar
– 1/2 teaspoon salt

For Toppings:
– Sliced green onions
– Chopped cilantro
– Diced cucumber
– Sesame seeds
– Lime wedges


Instructions

Creating a delicious bowl of Spicy Salmon with Coconut Rice involves a few straightforward steps:

1. Marinate the Salmon: In a bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, sriracha, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Add the salmon fillets, coating them well. Let them marinate for at least 10 minutes.

2. Cook the Rice: Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil.

3. Simmer the Rice: Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

4. Cook the Salmon: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the marinated salmon fillets in the skillet, skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes before flipping. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they are cooked through and brown.

5. Prepare the Toppings: While the salmon is cooking, chop the green onions, cilantro, and cucumber.

6. Assemble the Bowls: In individual bowls, add a scoop of coconut rice. Top it with the salmon fillet. Garnish with sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, diced cucumber, and sesame seeds.

7. Serve with Lime: Add lime wedges on the side to squeeze over the fish for an extra zesty kick.

These simple steps ensure your Spicy Salmon Bowls with Coconut Rice come out wonderfully every time.
