Ingredients
  

For the Salmon
  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
For the Rice
  • 2 cups jasmine rice
  • 4 cups water
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
For the Toppings
  • 1 avocado sliced
  • 1/4 cup green onions chopped
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 1/4 cup pickled ginger optional

Equipment

  • Non-stick skillet
  • Medium saucepan
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • Serving bowls

Method
 

  1. Start by rinsing the jasmine rice under cold water to remove excess starch.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to low heat, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes.
  3. While the rice is cooking, season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
  4. In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  5. Place the seasoned salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden.
  6. Carefully flip the salmon fillets and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
  7. Once the rice is cooked, stir in the soy sauce.
  8. In serving bowls, layer the rice, top with salmon, and add your choice of toppings.

Notes

Consider marinating the salmon for extra flavor and store toppings separately to maintain freshness.
