Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound salmon fillets, skin on or off
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup quinoa, rinsed
- 2 cups vegetable broth or water
- 1 cup chopped broccoli florets
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced red cabbage
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 clove garlic, minced
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- While salmon bakes, combine quinoa and vegetable broth (or water) in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed and quinoa is fluffy.
- In a small bowl, whisk together Sriracha sauce, rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, and minced garlic for the dressing.
- Once salmon and quinoa are ready, assemble the power bowls. Divide quinoa among four bowls.
- Top each bowl with a salmon fillet, broccoli florets, shredded carrots, and red cabbage.
- Drizzle generously with the Sriracha dressing.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
Notes
- You can customize the vegetables to your preference. Bell peppers, edamame, or avocado are great additions.
- For extra crunch, add a sprinkle of sesame seeds or chopped peanuts.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
