Ingredients

Scale

Salmon and Glaze

  • 2 salmon fillets
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • Olive oil, to drizzle
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Bowl Base and Toppings

  • 1 cup brown rice, cooked
  • 1 cup alfalfa sprouts

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the salmon evenly.
  2. Prepare Salmon: Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet. Drizzle each fillet generously with honey and a little olive oil, then season with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring the glaze coats the fish nicely.
  3. Bake Salmon: Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the honey glaze becomes slightly caramelized.
  4. Assemble Bowl: Spoon the cooked brown rice into serving bowls, place the baked honey glazed salmon fillets on top, and finish by adding fresh alfalfa sprouts for a crisp, refreshing contrast.

Notes

  • You can substitute brown rice with quinoa or cauliflower rice for a different texture or dietary preference.
  • Adjust honey quantity based on your preferred sweetness level.
  • For extra flavor, marinate the salmon briefly in honey and olive oil before baking.
  • Ensure salmon is cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for safety.
