Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked jasmine rice

2 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust for spice preference)

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon grated ginger

1 garlic clove, minced

1 avocado, sliced

1 cup thinly sliced cucumber

2 green onions, chopped

1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Instructions
 

In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sriracha, honey, sesame oil, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the marinade.

    Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well coated. Allow them to marinate for at least 15 minutes.

      While the salmon is marinating, prepare the rice according to package instructions if not already cooked.

        Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the salmon from the marinade (reserving the marinade) and place them skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes.

          Flip the salmon and pour the reserved marinade into the skillet, cooking for an additional 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

            While the salmon is cooking, prepare your toppings: slice the avocado and cucumber, and chop the green onions.

              To assemble the rice bowl, place a serving of jasmine rice in a bowl, top with a salmon fillet, sliced avocado, cucumbers, and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.

                Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately. For an extra kick, drizzle on some extra sriracha if desired.

                    - Presentation Tips: Serve the rice bowl in colorful, deep bowls to create layers with the toppings. Place the salmon on top of the rice and arrange the avocado and cucumber neatly around the edges, finishing with a sprinkle of sesame seeds for an eye-catching look.
