Equipment

  • shallow dish
  • whisk
  • baking sheet
  • saucepan
  • small bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 4 filets salmon 5-6 ounce each
  • 3 cups cooked rice or quinoa or cauliflower rice
  • 2 cups cucumber chopped
  • 1 cup edamame shelled, cooked and cooled
  • 1 cup carrots shredded or julienned
  • 1 medium avocado sliced
  • ½ cup coconut aminos
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated or use ½ teaspoon dried ginger
  • 1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons warm water to dissolve the cornstarch
  • sesame seeds optional garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place salmon filets in a shallow dish and set aside.
  • Prepare the teriyaki sauce by combining the coconut aminos, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Whisk well to combine, making sure the honey has dissolved.
  • Pour ⅓ cup of the teriyaki sauce over the salmon filets (saving the rest for later in the recipe).
  • Turn the filets over so that they are skin-side up and set aside while you prepare the cucumbers, carrots, and edamame.
  • Preheat the oven on the broiler setting.
  • While the broiler preheats, line a rimmed baking sheet with foil. Place the salmon filets on the baking sheet skin side down, discarding any leftover marinade.
  • Broil for 7-8 minutes or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  • While the salmon is broiling, add the remaining sauce to a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of warm water until the cornstarch is dissolved and the liquid looks milky white.
  • When the mixture in the saucepan is simmering, gently whisk in the cornstarch slurry and return the combined sauce and cornstarch mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally.
  • Continue to heat for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  • To serve, place ¾ cup rice in each of 4 shallow bowls or plates and top with salmon.
  • Divide the cucumbers (½ cup), carrots (¼ cup), edamame (¼ cup), and avocado in each bowl.
  • Drizzle each bowl with 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce and sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if using.
