Recipe Notes

  • In most versions of this recipe, the salmon is placed on the rice and then flaked immediately, before the rest of the ingredients are added to the bowl. That's totally up to you - feel free to serve the fillets intact if you'd rather.
  • Make it Whole30: Use cauliflower rice, not traditional white or brown rice. Replace the soy sauce with coconut aminos. Use a compliant sriracha (store-bought or homemade) and a compliant mayo (store-bought or homemade).
  • Make it Keto: Use cauliflower rice instead of traditional white or brown rice, and use a sriracha that doesn't contain sugar.
