Ingredients
Scale
4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
2 cups cooked brown or white rice
1 orange, juiced and zested
1 lemon, juiced and zested
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free option)
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup steamed broccoli florets
1 avocado, sliced
Fresh cilantro for garnish
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
In a bowl, combine orange juice, lemon juice, ginger, soy sauce, honey, and olive oil. Whisk until well mixed. Pour this marinade over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes to absorb all those fantastic flavors.
If you haven't cooked your rice yet, now is the time! Follow the package instructions to achieve perfectly fluffy brown or white rice. You can use leftover rice to save even more time.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated salmon fillets, skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the salmon is cooked through and has a beautiful golden crust.
As the salmon cooks, steam the broccoli florets until vibrant green and tender—usually around 5-7 minutes works perfectly.
Start with a bed of rice, place the cooked salmon on top, and arrange the steamed broccoli and slices of avocado. Finish with a drizzle of the leftover marinade for extra flavor and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
Serve your Citrus Ginger Salmon Bowls while hot, presenting a vibrant and enticing dish that is sure to impress friends or family.
