Description

Crispy salmon with a flavorful sesame crust, served over a bed of rice and fresh veggies for a balanced, delicious meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 1/4 cup sesame seeds (white and black mix)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 cup cooked jasmine rice
  • 2 cups mixed veggies (e.g., cucumber, shredded carrots, and edamame)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the salmon: In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, and sesame oil. Brush this mixture over each salmon fillet.
  2. Coat with sesame seeds: Press sesame seeds onto the tops of the fillets to form an even crust.
  3. Cook the salmon: Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Cook the fillets for 3-4 minutes per side until golden and cooked through.
  4. Assemble the bowls: Divide rice into 4 bowls, top with veggies, and place a salmon fillet on each. Drizzle with extra soy sauce if desired.

Notes

  • Use a food processor to chop veggies for a faster prep.
  • Swap jasmine rice for quinoa or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
