Teriyaki Salmon Bowl
This teriyaki salmon bowl is so easy to make and unbelievably flavorful! The crispy yet flaky salmon bites are coated in a delicious teriyaki glaze and served over rice with your favorite toppings.
I am a sucker for any meal I can eat out of a bowl! Taco bowls, burrito bowls, poke bowls, you name it! There is just something about throwing a variety of flavorful ingredients together to create the perfect meal. You can also switch it up with new sauces or toppings each time to keep things exciting. I kept it pretty simple for this recipe, but am excited to continue to post new and exciting bowl recipes!

Cooking Instructions

- Add rice to a bowl and set aside.
- Cut salmon filets into 1 inch pieces
- In another small bowl, mix together honey, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and Sriracha (this is the teriyaki sauce). Set aside.
- Heat a medium or large skillet to medium heat, add a tablespoon of oil and cubed salmon. Cook each side for about 2 minutes, or until lightly browned.
- Pour in the teriyaki sauce, increase the heat to high and stir lightly to coat the salmon in sauce. Cook for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add salmon and toppings of choice to the bowl of rice and enjoy!
Suggestions
As I mentioned previously, these bowls are easily adaptable so feel free to swap out whatever you’d like!
- Other great toppings include snow peas, broccoli, asparagus, and pickled onion
- Swap out the salmon for chicken or tofu
- Brown rice, cauliflower rice, and quinoa also make a great base
