Ingredients
Scale
For the Salmon
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
- 1/3 cup teriyaki sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Brussels Sprouts
- 1 lb Brussels sprouts (trimmed and halved)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon honey
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Bowls
- 2 cups cooked jasmine or brown rice
- 1 avocado (sliced)
- 1/4 cup sliced green onions
- Sesame seeds for garnish
- Extra teriyaki sauce for drizzling (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Brussels Sprouts: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a mixing bowl, toss the halved Brussels sprouts with olive oil, soy sauce, honey, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on the baking sheet with the cut side down. Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy on the edges.
- Cook the Salmon: While the Brussels sprouts roast, season salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place salmon skin-side down and cook for 4–5 minutes until crispy. Flip the fillets and cook for another 2–3 minutes. In the final minute, brush each fillet generously with teriyaki sauce, allowing it to caramelize slightly. Remove from heat when done.
- Assemble the Bowls: Divide the cooked jasmine or brown rice among four bowls. Top each bowl with one salmon fillet, roasted Brussels sprouts, sliced avocado, and green onions. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and drizzle with extra teriyaki sauce if desired for added flavor.
Notes
- For extra crunch, add shredded carrots or cucumber ribbons to the bowls.
- You can use air-fried Brussels sprouts for a quicker cooking method.
- To make this dish gluten-free, substitute soy sauce with tamari.
- Use fresh homemade teriyaki sauce to control sugar and sodium levels.
- The recipe works well with either jasmine or brown rice depending on preference.
