Honey Glazed Sriracha Salmon Bowl

These Honey Glazed Sriracha Salmon Bowls are healthy and delicious, a perfect way to serve up a healthy meal, and who doesn’t love a good bowl?

The sun is shining and spring is in the air. It’s gorgeous weather here in Calgary today. Doesn’t the sun just make you feel better? It does for me. I’ve been already dreaming about planting some seeds indoors to get ready for the garden this year.

I made this really simple but delicious Honey Glazed Sriracha Salmon Bowl today. It’s great for a quick and healthy weeknight meal.

Try not to overcook your salmon, it’s easy to do and it’s kind of yucky if you do. I’ve used 2 small wild salmon fillets for this recipe which would feed about 4 servings. We served this in a bowl over a bed of rice with roasted asparagus, sliced mango, Thai basil, spring onions and carrots that I’ve sliced thin using my peeler. Garnish with a little sesame seed, a drizzle of sesame oil and you have the most delicious healthy meal. This sauce has a little kick to it from the Sriracha, but I find it to be a nice balance of sweet and spicy. I like to reserve half of the glaze for serving with the salmon and as a bit of a sauce for the bowls. So set aside half of the glaze for drizzling. I hope you enjoy!

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound wild salmon fillets
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tsp sesame seeds, toasted

Honey Sriracha Glaze

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 4 tbsp sriracha sauce Less if you don't like it too spicy
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 2 tsp minced fresh ginger
  • 1 tsp chili powder

For the Bowls

  • 1-2 sliced mango
  • 2 chopped spring onion
  • 1 carrot sliced thin with a peeler
  • 1-2 tbsp sliced thai basil or regular basil
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds, toasted
  • 1 bunch roasted asparagus roast tossed with a little sesame oil at 425F for 7-8 minutes

Instructions
 

  • Make the glaze. Combine all the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and let simmer until thickened and reduced. Remove from heat and set aside. 
  • Preheat the oven to 425F. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place your salmon. Make sure your salmon is patted completely dry. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper and cover the salmon with another sheet of parchment and place in the oven for about 5-7 minutes until cooked half way through.
  • Prepare another baking sheet and place your asparagus on it. Snap the ends off and toss in a little sesame oil. Place these in the oven at 425F for about 7 minutes until roasted and cooked through.
  • Remove the salmon from the oven when half way cooked. Remove the top layer of parchment paper and spread half of your glaze on and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Drizzle over a little bit of sesame oil. Reserve the other half of your glaze for serving.
  • Switch the oven to broil and place your salmon under the broiler for another few minutes or so until the glaze is caramelized and the salmon is cooked through.
  • Serve the salmon over cooked rice with roasted asparagus, sliced mango, carrot, extra sesame seeds, thai basil, slivered spring onions and a drizzle of the extra sauce and a drizzle of sesame oil if you like.
