Equipment

  • 1 large nonstick skillet used for cooking salmon
  • 2 small bowls for mixing sauces

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced (from a 1-inch piece)
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 2 teaspoons Sriracha hot sauce
  • 1 1/2 pounds skinless salmon fillets thawed if frozen and cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cups cooked rice for serving
  • Thawed shelled edamame optional topping
  • Sliced mini cucumbers optional topping
  • Shredded carrot optional topping
  • Sliced avocado optional topping
  • Thinly sliced scallions optional topping
  • Toasted sesame seeds optional topping

Instructions
 

  • Combine minced garlic, minced ginger, honey, soy sauce or tamari, and rice vinegar in a small bowl; stir until honey dissolves.
  • In another small bowl, mix together Greek yogurt, water, and Sriracha to create the spicy yogurt sauce.
  • Season the salmon chunks evenly with kosher salt and black pepper.
  • Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  • Add salmon pieces in a single layer and cook without moving until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Flip the salmon and cook the other side until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes more.
  • Pour the honey-soy sauce mixture over the salmon and cook, stirring and spooning sauce over the fish occasionally, until the sauce thickens and glazes the salmon, about 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off heat.
  • Divide the cooked rice between bowls, top with glazed salmon, spoon pan sauce over, and add desired toppings.
  • Drizzle the prepared Sriracha yogurt sauce over the bowls before serving.

Notes

  • Make sauces up to one day ahead and store separately in airtight containers.
  • Store leftovers refrigerated for up to 2 days.
  • Customize toppings to preference for added texture and flavor.
