Ingredients
  

Salmon Marinade/Sauce
  • 1 lbs fresh salmon skin removed, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tbsp miso paste red or white
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tbsp light soy sauce
  • 1 tsp ginger freshly grated
  • 1 lime zested and juiced
  • 4 cloves garlic freshly minced
To garnish and serve
  • Fluffy steamed rice
  • Finely chopped spring onion
  • Thinly sliced cucumber
  • avocado thinly sliced
  • Steamed broccoli for added nutrients
  • Sesame seeds

Equipment

  • Jug
  • Mixing bowl
  • Large skillet

Method
 

  1. Add all marinade ingredients into a jug and mix until well combined. Add the salmon cubes and half the marinade into a medium mixing bowl and mix to coat well. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  2. While the salmon is marinating, prepare your rice according to your preferred method.
  3. Once the salmon has marinated, heat a large skillet on medium-high heat and add 1 tbsp of avocado or canola oil. Place the salmon cubes onto the skillet one by one, being careful to avoid oil splatter. Cook until a deep golden color is achieved, then turn over and cook for another minute.
  4. Serve the salmon on top of the rice. Brush with the remaining marinade, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve with sliced avocado and chopped spring onion.
