Ingredients
(Based on 1x column, assumes 2-3 servings)
Poke Marinade & Salmon:
- ▢ 1 lb SUSHI-GRADE salmon fillet, skin removed, cut into ~3/4 inch cubes (MUST be safe for raw consumption – see note above)
- ▢ 2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for GF)
- ▢ 1 tsp sesame oil
Bowl Components:
- ▢ 2 cups cooked sushi rice (or jasmine rice)
- ▢ 1 cup shelled edamame (cooked/thawed)
- ▢ 1/2 cup shredded carrots
Garnish (Optional):
- ▢ Sesame seeds (toasted preferred)
- ▢ Sliced green onions
Instructions
1. Prepare Rice and Vegetables (if needed):
- Cook sushi rice according to package directions. If desired, season warm rice with a mixture of rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Let cool slightly or to room temperature.
- Cook or thaw edamame according to package directions. Shred carrots if not using pre-shredded. Prepare any other desired toppings.
2. Prepare and Marinate Salmon:
- Ensure you are using sushi-grade salmon safe for raw consumption.
- Pat the salmon fillet dry. Using a very sharp knife, cut the salmon into bite-sized cubes (around 3/4 inch).
- Place the salmon cubes in a medium bowl.
- Add the soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss gently to coat the salmon evenly. Let it marinate for just 5-10 minutes while you assemble the bowls (longer marinating isn’t necessary and can affect the texture of the raw fish).
3. Assemble the Poke Bowls:
- Divide the cooked sushi rice evenly among your serving bowls.
- Arrange the marinated salmon cubes over one section of the rice.
- Add portions of the edamame and shredded carrots to the bowl, arranging them alongside the salmon.
4. Garnish and Serve:
- Sprinkle the bowls generously with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if using.
- Serve the Salmon Poke Bowls immediately.
