Glazed Salmon and Rice Bowl

I don’t think I’ll ever have enough 30 minute weekday recipes, especially healthy ones! Here’s another one from Cooking Light, that includes salmon, brown rice, snow peas, and quick pickled radishes for a bunch of flavor, crunch, color, and a little tanginess.

 

This is actually two recipes together: the salmon rice bowl and orange-sesame snow peas.

 

Ingredients:

Salmon and Rice Bowl

  • 3 tablespoons lower-sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos to make gluten free)
  • 3 tablespoons rice vinegar, divided
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
  • 1 cup very thinly sliced radishes
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Salmon Teriyaki Stir Fry

 There is a good chance I have a rice problem, I love all things rice. My go-to meal in a pinch is always risotto. So when DailyBuzz Food had an opportunity to work with RiceSelect through their Tastemaker program, I jumped at the chance. RiceSelect is one of my favorite rice brands.  You may notice their nifty containers popping out of a bunch of my posts so I was really excited to work with their rice. The catch was that they sent me one of RiceSelect’s rice randomly, I didn’t get to choose it. When I opened up the package, I discovered brown rice. Hum. I’ve never worked with brown rice before, but I was up for the challenge!
I decided to make a stir fry teriyaki dish using my favorite protein, salmon. Normally stir fry is a quick dinner choice but brown rice takes quite a bit of time to cook. But it gives you plenty of time to prep your veggies and hang out with your dinner guests!
