Instructions
Prepare rice according to package directions if you don’t have any pre-cooked.
Marinate The Salmon
Remove salmon from the fridge to temper; dry with a paper towel and set aside. Whisk together garlic, ginger, lemon juice, sesame oil, and soy sauce in a bowl. Add salmon; gently turning to ensure it’s evenly coated, then let it soak in the marinade, skin side up. Preheat the oven to broil.
Make The Slaw
Whisk together garlic, ginger, honey, sesame oil, olive oil, rice wine vinegar, and soy sauce in a large bowl. Add cabbage, carrots, cucumber, red bell pepper, and red onion; gently toss to combine.
Broil The Salmon
Place salmon on a silpat or parchment-lined baking sheet and place in the oven to broil for 6 to 8 minutes, depending on the desired doneness.
Assemble your bowl with rice, slaw, and salmon. Add additional toppings if you’d like.
Notes
Feel free to use regular or toasted sesame oil. English cucumber can be used in place of Persian.
