Salmon, rice, and everything nice…these are the ingredients that make up this seriously delicious fresh Summer salmon bowl! Another TikTok trend combining leftover salmon and rice with soy sauce, kimchi, and mayo to make the yummiest bowl. It’s so yummy, you don’t need to use leftovers. In this recipe, we marinated Salmon in soy, sesame, and honey sauce, and then pan-fried it until just cooked through. Flaked and mixed in with rice and mayo, toped with avo, ginger and soy…you can’t go wrong! This balanced bowl is also great for meal prepping or if you need a packed lunch for work.
