Teriyaki Salmon Bowl | Healthy Meal Prep Recipe

mirin

🥗Healthier: rice vinegar + sugar

💰Cheaper: white wine + sugar

Rice vinegar + sugar mimics the sweetness and acidity of mirin.

salmon fillets

🥗Healthier: trout

💰Cheaper: canned salmon

Canned salmon is more affordable and still nutritious.

sesame seeds

🥗Healthier: pumpkin seeds

💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds

Sunflower seeds provide a similar crunch at a lower cost.

nori

💰Cheaper: seaweed snacks

Seaweed snacks are often cheaper and easier to find.

In a small bowl, mix together tamari sauce, agave syrup, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, and freshly grated ginger to create the teriyaki sauce.

Set the teriyaki sauce aside.

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add a little oil.

Remove the skin from the salmon fillet and cut it into one-inch cubes.

Season the salmon cubes with a little salt and add them to the hot oil in the skillet in a single layer.

Cook the salmon, tossing regularly, until it is browned on all sides and pink on the inside.

Once the salmon has crispy edges, pour the teriyaki sauce over the salmon in the skillet.

Cook for an additional three to four minutes, tossing the salmon in the sauce until it becomes syrupy and coats the salmon.

Prepare the bowl by placing cooked rice at the bottom, then adding cucumber slices, thawed edamame, and creamy avocado on top.

Pile the teriyaki salmon on top of the vegetables and rice.

Finish with a sprinkle of green onion and sesame seeds.
