Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 cups cooked rice (brown or white)
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Set aside.
- Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the salmon cubes to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until lightly browned.
- Add the broccoli florets, sliced bell peppers, and shredded carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Pour the teriyaki sauce mixture over the salmon and vegetables. Stir gently to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
- To serve, divide the cooked rice among four bowls.
- Top the rice with the teriyaki salmon and vegetable mixture.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
