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!
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
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.
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.
