Instructions
Step 1
Basic Prep
Step 2
Start by preparing your grains as per the directions on the package. Once the grains are done cooking, remove them from the heat but keep them covered to keep them warm.
Step 3
Note: I used forbidden black rice here which requires a thorough rinse and a bit more cook time than rice, so be sure to time things appropriately or cook your grains in advance. You could also use one of those microwaveable rice pouches that take 90 seconds to cook to speed things up!
Step 4
Place the cut up carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers, and red cabbage into a small mixing bowl. Sprinkle with some sesame seeds if you wish, and add 1 TBSP of sesame oil and 1 TBSP of rice vinegar. Toss to coat and set aside.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 2 tablespoons of low-sodium soy sauce, the juice of 1 lime, the grated garlic, and the grated ginger. When well blended, place the cubed salmon into the bowl, toss to coat, and set it aside.
Step 6
Cooking & Assembly
Step 7
Oven method: Preheat to 425º F. Spread the marinated salmon cubes onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, pop it in the oven, and bake for 10 minutes or until the salmon registers an internal temperature of 140-145º F (using a meat thermometer).
Step 8
Air fryer method: Give the bottom of the air fryer basket a quick spray with cooking oil and place the marinated salmon cubes into the basket. Air fry them at 350º F for 6 minutes or until the salmon registers an internal temperature of 140-145º F.
Step 9
While the salmon cooks, if you're making the sweet & spicy sauce, do it now. Just mix all of the ingredients for it in a small bowl until well combined. Taste and adjust heat or sweetness to your preference.
Step 10
Place the grains into bowls creating somewhat of a bed for everything else, then top with the veggies, salmon, avocado, and any other toppers you might be using. Drizzle some extra teriyaki sauce over the salmon, garnish the bowls with scallions, sesame seeds, and the yogurt sauce if you made it. Squeeze some fresh lime juice over everything before digging in.
