Directions :

  1. Cut your salmon fillets into 1-inch cubes. If you like, remove the skin (it’s edible, but some people don’t like it). You can use kitchen shears for easier skin removal.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the soy sauce (or tamari), honey, sriracha, minced garlic, and water. Whisking helps mix everything well.
  3. Add the salmon cubes to the marinade and let them soak for at least 20 minutes, or up to an hour. The longer they sit, the tastier they become! Remember to marinate them in the fridge for safety.
  4. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a little oil. Add the salmon cubes to the skillet, keeping some marinade for later. Cook the salmon for 2-3 minutes on each side until it flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Pour in the reserved marinade and cook for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. This will enhance the flavor.
  6. Assemble your bowls by starting with a bed of cooked rice. Top it with the honey sriracha salmon, diced avocado, sliced cucumber, and cooked edamame. You can be creative with the arrangement!
  7. Drizzle the sriracha mayo on top and sprinkle with red pepper flakes and sesame seeds if you like. Adjust the mayo to suit your taste.
  8. Serve your Honey Sriracha Salmon Bowls immediately and enjoy!
