Why Salmon Is a Protein Powerhouse

Salmon is one of the most nutrient-dense proteins you can eat. Beyond its impressive protein content, it provides omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D, and B vitamins that support muscle recovery and reduce inflammation. This bowl combines it with brown rice and steamed broccoli for a complete macro-balanced meal.

Ingredients

• 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
• 1 cup cooked brown rice
• 2 cups broccoli florets, steamed
• 1 avocado, sliced
• Sesame seeds and green onions for garnish

Teriyaki Glaze

• 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 1 tablespoon water

Instructions

1. Pat salmon fillets dry and season with salt and pepper.
2. Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
3. Sear salmon skin-side up for 3 minutes until golden. Flip.
4. Mix all teriyaki glaze ingredients in a small saucepan. Simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes.
5. Brush glaze over salmon and transfer skillet to oven at 400°F for 8 minutes.
6. Assemble bowls with rice, broccoli, sliced avocado, and salmon. Drizzle remaining glaze, sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions.
