Ingredients

2 salmon fillets (skin-on recommended)

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup cooked jasmine or sushi rice

1/2 cucumber, thinly sliced

1 small avocado, sliced

1/4 cup pickled radishes

2 green onions, chopped

1 tablespoon sesame seeds

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sriracha (optional)

1 teaspoon mirin (optional)

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the Salmon:

    - Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.

      Cook the Salmon:

        - In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the pan. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Gently flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness.

          Assemble the Bowl:

            - In serving bowls, place a scoop of the cooked rice as the base. Top with sliced cucumber, avocado, pickled radishes, chopped green onions, and sesame seeds.

              Add the Salmon:

                - Carefully place the crispy salmon fillet on top of the assembled vegetables and rice.

                  Make the Sauce:

                    - In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, sriracha, and mirin (if using). Drizzle this sauce over the salmon and vegetables.

                      Garnish:

                        - Finish the dish by garnishing with fresh cilantro and any extra sesame seeds as desired.

                          Serve:

                            - Serve immediately, enjoying the delightful contrast of textures and flavors in your crispy salmon and rice bowl!
