Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets about 6 oz each
  • 0.25 cup soy sauce
  • 0.25 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water
  • 2 cups cooked rice white or brown
  • 1 cup broccoli florets steamed
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 0.25 cup green onions chopped
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • small saucepan
  • whisk

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse and pat dry salmon fillets. Place on a lined baking sheet.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Whisk and heat over medium. When simmering, stir in cornstarch slurry. Cook 1–2 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.
  3. Brush salmon with teriyaki sauce. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until it flakes easily. Optionally, brush with more sauce halfway through.
  4. Cook rice and steam broccoli until tender-crisp. Slice avocado and chop green onions.
  5. Assemble bowls: Add rice, veggies, and salmon. Drizzle with remaining sauce and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.

Notes

Use fresh salmon fillets for best results. Let sauce cool slightly before drizzling. Store components separately and reheat gently for best texture. Add toppings like spicy mayo, pickled veggies, or edamame for variation.
