Ingredients:

_Salmon and Vegetables_

• 2 6-ounce Copper River Salmon fillets (Product = copper-river-salmon)
• 1 cup sushi rice
• 2 teaspoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon chili-garlic sauce
• 1 mini cucumber, sliced thinly
• 1/2 cup edamame
• 2 radishes, sliced thinly
• 1/2 avocado, diced
• 1/2 mango, diced
• 1 tablespoon black sesame seeds

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Combine the rice

In a small saucepan, combine the rice with 2 cups of water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer, reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Turn off the heat and fluff the rice with a fork.

3. Whisk

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, hoisin sauce and chili-garlic sauce.

4. Bake

Place the salmon on the prepared baking sheet and pat it dry. Cover it with the sauce. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until cooked through.

5. Divide

Divide the rice between bowls and top with salmon, cucumbers, edamame, radishes, avocado, and mango. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.

6. Tips

This teriyaki salmon poke recipe works for any variety of salmon. But for the best flavor and texture, choose wild Alaskan salmon. 

Patting the salmon dry helps the sauce adhere better for more flavor.

You can swap out sushi rice for short- or long-grain white or brown rice. Or, another grain like quinoa, farro, or millet would work. For a low-carb version, use mixed greens or baby spinach as a base to your poke bowl.

This recipe is oil-free, nut-free, gluten-free, and free of refined sugars.

You can use another sweetener instead of honey, such as agave or maple syrup. Coconut sugar will also work.

You can make extra sauce to drizzle on top, just be sure you don’t contaminate it with a spoon that has touched the raw fish.

• Other topping ideas include:
• Seaweed salad
• Shredded cabbage
• Other fruit, such as peaches, kiwi, or pineapple
• Chopped nuts, such as macadamia or cashews
• Shredded carrots
