Equipment

  • skillet
  • bowl
  • Meat thermometer

Ingredients
  

Bang Bang Sauce

  • ⅓ cup plain Greek yogurt or mayonnaise
  • 4 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
  • 2 teaspoon sriracha

For the Salmon Bites

  • 1 tablespoon avocado oil for cooking
  • 1 lb salmon filet chopped into bite-sized chunks
  • ½ cup coconut aminos *
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 large cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon sriracha optional
  • 2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil optional

For the Bowls

  • 1 Batch Asian Cucumber Salad
  • 3 cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 large head broccoli chopped into florets
  • 1 large ripe avocado sliced

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Prepare the cucumber salad by adding all of the ingredients to a small bowl and allowing it to sit for at least 15 minutes (ideally at least one hour if you have the time).
  • Cook the rice according to the package instructions. Gauge the amount of rice you make based on how many people you're serving.
  • While the rice is cooking, prepare the bang bang sauce by stirring together the ingredients in a small bowl until everything is well-combined. Refrigerate the sauce until you're ready to use it.
  • Steam, saute, or roast the broccoli according to your preference.

Cooking Salmon

  • In a small bowl, combine the coconut aminos, rice vinegar, minced garlic, sriracha and sesame oil and stir together until the sauce is well-combined.
  • Cut the salmon into bite-sized cubes. Remove skin if desired.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Cook the salmon chunks in the hot skillet until golden-brown on one side, then flip and pour the sauce over.
  • Cook until fully glazed and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes.

Assemble Bowls

  • Add rice to bowls, followed by cucumber salad, broccoli, avocado, and crispy salmon. Drizzle with bang bang sauce.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

You can replace coconut aminos with low-sodium soy sauce and maple syrup. Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 5 days.
