Ingredients
Scale
Here’s what you’ll need to create this delightful dish:
- 4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
- 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 cups cooked jasmine rice
- 2 ripe avocados, sliced
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 green onions, chopped
- Salt and pepper to taste
If you’re out of jasmine rice, any long-grain rice like basmati or even brown rice would work as a substitute. And if you prefer a bit of heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the teriyaki sauce.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each fillet generously with teriyaki sauce.
- Bake the salmon in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Keep an eye on it to avoid overcooking.
- While the salmon is baking, prepare the rice. If it’s not already cooked, follow the package instructions for perfect jasmine rice.
- In a small bowl, mix together the sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, ginger, and garlic to create a dressing.
- Once the salmon is done, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes.
- To assemble the stack, start with a layer of rice on each plate. Drizzle a bit of the dressing over the rice for added flavor.
- Top the rice with sliced avocado, then place a salmon fillet on top.
- Sprinkle each stack with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve warm.
Pro tip: If you’re rushed for time, cook the rice the night before and store it in the fridge. It reheats beautifully and makes dinner prep a breeze.
