Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (skinless)
  • 1 cup sushi rice (or short-grain white rice)
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar or honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tsp cornstarch (optional)
  • 1/2 cup cucumber, sliced or diced
  • 1/2 cup shredded carrots
  • 1/2 cup cooked edamame (shelled)
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 sheet nori or seaweed snacks, cut into strips
  • Optional toppings: pickled ginger, wasabi, spicy mayo

Instructions

  1. Cook sushi rice according to package instructions. While warm, mix with rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Let cool slightly.
  2. In a small pan, combine soy sauce, brown sugar or honey, garlic, and ginger. Simmer for a few minutes. If desired, thicken with cornstarch slurry.
  3. Brush salmon with teriyaki sauce. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 10–12 minutes or pan-sear 4–5 minutes per side until cooked and glazed.
  4. Prep vegetables: slice cucumber, shred carrots, cook edamame, and slice avocado.
  5. In bowls, add seasoned rice, then top with pieces of teriyaki salmon and vegetables.
  6. Drizzle with more sauce. Garnish with green onions, sesame seeds, nori, and optional toppings.

Notes

  • Use sushi-grade raw salmon for a poke-style version if preferred.
  • Try with cauliflower rice for a low-carb bowl.
  • Add fruits like mango or toppings like kimchi for a twist.
  • Make it spicy by adding sriracha to the sauce or serving with spicy mayo.
