  • Author: Lana
  • Total Time: 0 hours

Ingredients

– 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
– 1 cup cooked rice (brown or white)
– 1 cup broccoli florets
– 1 bell pepper, sliced (red, yellow, or green)
– 1 carrot, julienned
– 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)
– 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)


Instructions

Creating a Teriyaki Salmon Bowl can be straightforward if you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Rice: Cook the rice according to package instructions. Keep it warm.
2. Preheat the Oven or Grill: If you are baking, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). For grilling, ensure your grill is ready at medium heat.
3. Marinate the Salmon: In a bowl, coat the salmon fillets with half of the teriyaki sauce. Let them marinate for about 5 minutes.
4. Cook the Vegetables: In a skillet, add a splash of water or a teaspoon of oil. Sauté the broccoli, bell pepper, and carrot over medium heat for 5-7 minutes until they are slightly tender but still crisp. Remove from heat.
5. Cook the Salmon: Bake the salmon fillets in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or grill them for 5-6 minutes per side, until they are cooked through and flaky. Brush the fillets with the remaining teriyaki sauce during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
6. Assemble the Bowl: Place a scoop of rice at the bottom of each bowl, followed by the sautéed vegetables and then the salmon fillet on top.
7. Garnish: Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top for added flavor and crunch.
8. Serve Immediately: Drizzle any remaining teriyaki sauce over the assembled bowls, if desired.
