Spicy Salmon Bowl

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I can’t believe I don’t have more salmon recipes up on the blog. Salmon is one of my favourite fish to eat, and one of my favourite meals in general. I find it to be so flavourful and does not need a tonne of seasonings and adds so much to a simple meal.

As my next salmon contribution to the blog, I kicked it up a notch with this Spicy Salmon Bowl. It is perfect for any meal and even as part of your meal prep. Spicy marinated salmon is paired with rice and topped with mango, cucumber, carrot, avocado and topped with a simple spicy mayo. You won’t be able to get enough of these bowls!

Ingredients in Spicy Salmon Bowls

This dish comes together fairly easily. You’ll start by marinating the salmon using a few simple ingredients before baking it. Make a batch of rice or use up any leftovers, and the rest is very simple.

Spicy salmon:

  • Chili garlic sauce: easily found in most grocery stores near the soy sauce
  • red pepper flakes: optional if you want a little extra heat
  • soy sauce
  • 1 lime
  • sesame oil
  • honey
  • salmon filets that you will chop into 1 inch cubes

Bowls: Feel free to change up the topping based on what you have available and your preferences

  • rice of choice
  • cucumber
  • carrot
  • mango
  • avocado
  • Optional other toppings including: roasted seaweed sheets (I recommend not to skip this), sesame seeds, soy sauce

Spicy Mayo

  • mayo & sriracha hot sauce, that’s it!

A flavourful and nourishing meal

Salmon is packed with good-for you nutrients and has been widely described as a superfood, making this meal just as nourishing as it is delicious.

  • Salmon is high in omega-3 fatty acids which help to reduce inflammation in the body, has a positive impact on cholesterol and heart health, and reduces risk of chronic disease when eaten regularly.
  • It contains the antioxidant astaxanthin, which is responsible for the pink colour of salmon. Antioxidants may help to reduce risk of cancer due to its protective effect on the cells in our body.
  • Salmon is high in protein: Like other types of fish, it is very high in protein and relatively low in calories, making it a great protein option for your meals.

New! Viral Shaved Fruit Ice I am late to the game New! Viral Shaved Fruit Ice

I am late to the game but needed to try this trending shaved fruit ice idea by @littlefatboyfrankie

It is super refreshing and a fun way to use up seasonal fruit you may have laying around (hello peach season!). 

This is my take on this delicious idea, rainbow sherbet using clementines, kiwi and strawberries. Follow me @thedietitianfeed for more delicious recipes! 

Ingredients:
* 1 clementine, peeled 
* 1 large strawberry
* 1 kiwi, peeled
* Optional: whipped cream, sweetened condensed milk, finely chopped nuts

Method:
1. Freeze the fruit, or fruit of choice overnight or until frozen solid, about 8 hours. 
2. Option to place your serving bowl in the freezer or fridge to chill before serving, as the shaved ice starts to melt quickly. 
3. Using a microplane, grate your frozen fruit into the chilled bowl. 
4. Top with whipped cream, or toppings of choice like the sweetened condensed milk, chopped nuts like almonds or pistachios. 
5. Enjoy immediately!

Honey Dijon Salmon @thedietitianfeed Sheet pan me Honey Dijon Salmon @thedietitianfeed

Sheet pan meals are always a go to during busy weeks. This one does not disappoint!
Like and save this post to make later and follow me @thedietitianfeed for more delicious, healthy recipes!

Ingredients:
Maple Dijon Sauce:
*  ¼ cup dijon mustard
*  2 tbsp maple syrup
*  1 tbsp lemon juice, or apple cider vinegar
*  1 clove garlic, minced
*  1 tbsp olive oil
*  Freshly cracked black pepper
*  Pinch salt
Other:
*  1 large head broccoli, cut into bite size pieces (including most of the stems)
*  1 lb mini round potatoes, sliced in half
*  2 salmon filets (or 1 large piece of salmon)

Method:
1.  Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2.  Stir together the ingredients for the maple dijon sauce. Place the chopped potatoes in a mixing bowl and add about 2 tbsp of the sauce to the bowl, mix well.
3. Place the potatoes on the lined baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes. While that cooks, add the broccoli to the same mixing bowl and add about 2 tbsp of sauce to the broccoli, mix well and set aside. I like using the stems of the broccoli as well by peeling the tougher outer layer, then roughly dicing the stem. 
4. Use the remaining sauce to marinate the salmon. Place the salmon and sauce in a shallow bowl and allow to marinate until the potatoes are finished baking. Once the potatoes have baked, add the broccoli and salmon to the same sheet and bake for another 15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flaky. Serve while hot. Enjoy!
