Ingredients

For the Salmon & Glaze:
4 salmon fillets
2 tbsp white miso paste
1 ½ tbsp soy sauce or tamari for gluten-free
1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tsp fresh ginger grated
1 clove garlic minced
Optional: sesame oil or chili flakes
For the Bowl:
2 cups cooked jasmine rice
1 cup steamed edamame
½ cup pickled vegetables carrot, cucumber, radish
1 avocado sliced (optional)
2 tbsp sriracha mayo or spicy yogurt sauce
2 green onions thinly sliced
1 tbsp sesame seeds
Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet.
Make the glaze: In a small bowl, whisk miso paste, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, garlic, and ginger until smooth.
Prepare the salmon: Place fillets skin-side down on the sheet and brush generously with glaze.
Bake the salmon for 12–15 minutes, then broil for 1–2 minutes for a caramelized finish.
Cook or warm your rice and prep toppings while the salmon bakes.
Assemble your bowls: Add rice to each bowl, top with salmon, veggies, avocado, and edamame.
Drizzle with sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Serve with lime wedges.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the salmon in the miso glaze for 30 minutes before baking.
Use cauliflower rice for a low-carb version.
Store leftovers in airtight containers for up to 3 days.
