Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Place salmon fillets in a shallow dish or resealable bag and pour the marinade over them. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Rinse jasmine rice under cold water. In a medium saucepan, combine rinsed rice and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes.
Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil. Place marinated salmon fillets in the dish, skin-side down, and pour the remaining marinade over the top. Bake for 12-15 minutes.
Fluff the cooked jasmine rice and divide it among four bowls. Top each bowl with a baked salmon fillet.
Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Drizzle with additional sriracha if desired.

Notes

For a vegan option, substitute the salmon with tofu or tempeh.

Quinoa can be used instead of jasmine rice for a boost in protein.

Adding roasted vegetables like bell peppers or broccoli enhances both flavor and nutrition.

For a gluten-free version, use tamari or any gluten-free soy sauce substitute.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Reheat leftovers in the microwave or oven until warmed through.
