Description
These Sriracha Honey Salmon Bowls are a bold, balanced fusion of sweet, spicy, and savory. Glazed salmon bites caramelize in a sticky honey-sriracha sauce and are served over fluffy white rice with golden roasted cauliflower. Quick to make and full of flavor, this meal is perfect for weeknights, meal prep, or impressing guests with minimal effort.
Ingredients
1 pound salmon fillet, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
3 cups cooked white rice
1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional garnish)
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (optional garnish)
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Toss cauliflower florets with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on a baking sheet for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.
3. In a bowl, whisk together honey, sriracha, soy sauce, garlic, and rice vinegar to create the glaze.
4. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon chunks and sear 2–3 minutes per side until golden.
5. Pour glaze into the skillet and cook for another 2–3 minutes, tossing to coat, until the sauce thickens and clings to the salmon.
6. Divide rice into bowls. Top with roasted cauliflower and glazed salmon.
7. Drizzle with remaining glaze and garnish with green onions and cilantro if desired. Serve immediately.
Notes
Pat the salmon dry before searing to ensure even browning and crisp edges.
Use parchment on your baking tray for easier cauliflower cleanup.
Adjust the glaze’s spice level by adding more or less sriracha to your taste.
