Honey Sriracha Salmon Bowls: The Ultimate Sweet & Spicy Meal

Honey Sriracha Salmon Bowls

This Honey Sriracha Salmon Bowl was born out of one of those “what’s for dinner?” nights when I wanted something nourishing and bold. My daughter took one bite and said, “Mom, this tastes like a fancy restaurant!” It’s now our go-to for quick weeknights and relaxed weekends. If you love meals that balance sweet and spicy, this one’s a keeper!

Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

  • 2 tbsp honey

  • 1 tbsp sriracha (adjust to taste)

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce (low sodium)

  • 1 tsp sesame oil

  • 1 garlic clove, minced

  • 1 tsp lime juice

  • 1 cup cooked jasmine or brown rice

  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots

  • 1/2 avocado, sliced

  • 1/4 cup edamame (steamed)

  • 1/4 cup cucumber slices

  • Sesame seeds and chopped green onion for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.

  • Mix sauce: In a small bowl, combine honey, sriracha, soy sauce, garlic, sesame oil, and lime juice.

  • Coat salmon: Place salmon fillets skin-side down and brush generously with sauce.

  • Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily with a fork.

  • Assemble bowls: Start with rice, then add carrots, cucumber, edamame, avocado, and baked salmon.

  • Drizzle extra sauce over the top and garnish with sesame seeds and green onion.

Notes

  • Want more heat? Add chili flakes or extra sriracha.

  • Swap rice for quinoa or cauliflower rice for fewer carbs.

  • Marinate the salmon for 30 mins for deeper flavor (optional but delicious!).

  • Great for meal prep — just pack in separate containers.
