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
  • 1 Fluffy steamed rice for serving
  • 1 spring onion finely chopped
  • 1 cucumber thinly sliced
  • 1 avocado thinly sliced
  • 1 Steamed broccoli for added nutrients
  • 1 Sesame seeds for sprinkling

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Jug

Method
 

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