Description
Make a balanced, high protein dinner with caramelized honey glazed salmon, brown rice, avocado, and cucumber in 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets cut into cubes
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sriracha
- 1 cup cooked brown rice
- 1 ripe avocado diced
- 1 cup diced cucumber
- 2 tablespoons light mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, combine salmon cubes, avocado oil, honey, soy sauce, and sriracha. Toss until evenly coated and glossy.
- Spread salmon in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast for 10 minutes until just cooked through and flaky.
- Switch oven to broil and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until edges are slightly crisp and caramelized. Watch closely to avoid burning.
- In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, lime juice, and paprika until smooth.
- In another bowl, combine diced avocado, cucumber, olive oil, cilantro, and lime juice. Toss gently to keep the avocado intact.
- Assemble bowls by adding warm brown rice, topping with glazed salmon, and spooning over the cucumber mixture.
- Drizzle sauce over the top and serve immediately.
Notes
- Cook salmon to an internal temperature of 145°F and allow it to rest for 3 minutes before serving.
