Ingredients Needed

For the Teriyaki Salmon

• Salmon: Cut the salmon into small, bite-sized cubes to make the teriyaki salmon bites!
• Soy Sauce: I used low sodium soy sauce. You can also use coconut aminos if you prefer!
• Sesame Oil: Adds a slightly nutty flavor.
• Honey: Honey adds a hint of sweetness and caramelizes the outside of the salmon bites.
• Garlic: For a deep, savory flavor!
• Sriracha: For a hint of spice! If you are sensitive to spice, you can omit this or add just a little bit to start.

For the Bowls

• Rice: You can assemble these teriyaki salmon bowl with your favorite kind of rice!
• Edamame: I like to add edamame to my bowls. They add nutrition and a lovely texture!
• Avocado: Add some fresh avocado slices to each bowl.
• Sesame Seeds: As garnish, if desired.
• Green Onion: As garnish, if desired.

How to Make Teriyaki salmon bowls

1. Make Teriyaki Sauce: Add soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, garlic, and sriracha to a large bowl. Whisk to combine. Reserve 2 tbsp of the sauce and set aside.

2. Marinate the Salmon: Add the salmon to the large bowl and toss to coat in the sauce.

3. Cook: You can cook the salmon in the air fryer or the skillet. To cook in the air fryer, preheat the air fryer to 400 degrees. Grease the insert with nonstick cooking spray. Add in the salmon and cook for 8 minutes (no need to flip halfway). To cook in a skillet, heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add in salmon bites and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side.

4. Assemble Bowls: Divide the rice, edamame, salmon bites and avocado between the bowls. Spoon the reserved sauce on the salmon bites and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions for garnish! Serve immediately and enjoy!

Recipe Variations

Teriyaki salmon bowls are super versatile, and you can make them exactly how you’d like! Here are some delicious variations you can try.

• Protein: If you aren’t a fan of salmon, this teriyaki sauce would be delicious on other proteins like chicken, shrimp or even tofu!
• Sauce: I like making a homemade teriyaki sauce since I know exactly what goes in. But you can definitely use your favorite store-bought sauce if you prefer!
• Rice: I used long grain white rice, but you can use brown rice, quinoa, or even couscous!
• Veggies: Add as many veggies as you’d like here. Teriyaki salmon bowls would be delicious with steamed broccoli or freshly diced cucumbers!
