Ingredients
For the Bang Bang Sauce:
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt 
- 1 Tbsp honey 
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes 
- 1 tsp sriracha 
For the Salmon Bites:
- 1 lb salmon filet, chopped into bite-sized chunks 
- 1/4 cup coconut aminos (a gut-friendly soy sauce alternative) 
- 1 Tbsp apple cider vinegar 
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced 
- 1 tsp sriracha (optional for extra spice) 
- 1 Tbsp avocado oil for cooking 
For the Bowls:
- 1/2 cup dry rice, cooked with 1 cup bone broth 
- 1 large head broccoli, chopped into florets 
- 1 large ripe avocado, sliced (optional) 
- A handful of microgreens 
Instructions
Step 1: Marinate the Salmon
- In a bowl, combine coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and sriracha (if using). 
- Add the chopped salmon bites to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour in the fridge). 
Step 2: Prepare the Rice
- Cook 1/2 cup dry rice in 1 cup of bone broth for an extra nutrient boost. Fluff and set aside. 
Step 3: Make the Bang Bang Sauce
- In a small bowl, whisk together Greek yogurt, honey, red pepper flakes, and sriracha. Set aside for drizzling. 
Step 4: Cook the Salmon
- Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium heat. 
- Remove the salmon from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and sear for 2 minutes on each side until lightly browned. 
- Pour the reserved marinade into the skillet and let it simmer with the salmon for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the salmon. 
Step 5: Steam the Broccoli
- While the salmon cooks, steam broccoli florets until tender yet crisp, about 5 minutes. 
Step 6: Assemble the Bowls
- Divide the cooked rice into two bowls. 
- Top with salmon bites, steamed broccoli, avocado slices (if using), and microgreens. 
- Drizzle the Bang Bang Sauce generously over the top.
