Ingredients
– 2 salmon fillets
– 1 cup jasmine rice
– 2 cups water or chicken broth
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste

– 1 carrot, julienned
– 1 bell pepper, sliced
– 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)

– Soy sauce or teriyaki sauce (optional)
Instructions
Creating the Crispy Salmon and Rice Bowl is straightforward if you follow these steps:
1. Cook the Rice: Rinse the jasmine rice thoroughly. In a medium pot, combine the rice and water (or chicken broth). Bring it to a boil, then lower the heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until cooked.
2. Prepare the Vegetables: While the rice cooks, prepare the broccoli, carrot, and bell pepper. Steam the broccoli and julienned carrot until tender-crisp.
3. Season the Salmon: Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. You can also add any desired spices to enhance the flavor.
4. Sear the Salmon: In a skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Once heated, carefully place the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy.
5. Flip the Salmon: Gently flip the fillets and cook for another 3-4 minutes on the other side. The salmon should be golden brown and cooked through.
6. Prepare the Plate: Once the rice is ready, fluff it with a fork. Place a generous serving of rice in the bowl.
7. Add Vegetables: Top the rice with the steamed broccoli, carrot, and bell pepper.
8. Finish with Salmon: Place the crispy salmon fillet on top of the vegetables.
9. Garnish: Sprinkle sliced green onions and sesame seeds over the dish. Add a drizzle of soy sauce or teriyaki sauce, if desired.
10. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Crispy Salmon and Rice Bowl while it’s hot!
