1/4 cup soy sauce*
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon sriracha (or chili garlic paste)
2 garlic cloves , grated
2 teaspoons grated ginger (or ginger paste)

Spicy Mayo

1/3 cup kewpie mayo (or regular mayonnaise)
1 tablespoon sriracha (or chili garlic paste)

Bowls

Instructions

Make the marinade. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, sriracha, garlic, and ginger until smooth.
Prep the salmon. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels and cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes.
Marinate the salmon. Toss the cubed salmon with the marinade and let it marinate for 20-30 minutes, up to 8 hours.
Make the spicy mayo. In a small bowl, whisk together the kewpie, sriracha, ginger, soy, and sesame oil until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Preheat oven to 400 F.
Bake the salmon. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Remove the salmon from the marinade and spread on the baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes and broil for 1-2 minutes to get a light char. Remove from the oven.
Assemble the bowls. Divide rice between bowls, then top with salmon, cucumbers, avocado, veggies, and any other desired toppings. Drizzle with spicy mayo and enjoy salmon rice bowls right away.
