Ingredients
  

  • 2 ounces freshly grated ginger
  • 4 radishes thinly sliced (optional!)
  • 4 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 2-pound salmon filet
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 cups cooked brown jasmine rice
  • 4 green onions sliced
  • 1 avocado thinly sliced
  • 1/2 tablespoon furikake seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil

Equipment

  • Cutting board
  • Sharp knife
  • Skillet
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Rice Cooker or Pot

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, combine the freshly grated ginger, rice vinegar, water, sugar, and salt. Whisk together until well blended and set aside.
  2. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the unsalted butter, allowing it to melt and become slightly bubbly. Pat the salmon filet dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
  3. Carefully place the seasoned salmon filet into the hot skillet, skin side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, then flip the salmon and pour the ginger sauce over it. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily.
  4. Prepare your brown jasmine rice according to package instructions. Once cooked, fluff the rice and divide it among serving bowls.
  5. To each bowl of rice, add a piece of the cooked salmon, drizzle with remaining ginger sauce, and top with green onions, avocado, and radishes. Sprinkle with furikake seasoning, soy sauce, and sesame oil.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
  • Freeze salmon separately from rice and veggies for about 1 month.
  • Reheat gently to avoid overcooking the salmon.
