Notes

  • For a low-carb version, substitute rice with cauliflower rice.
  • Want extra crunch? Add roasted seaweed strips or crispy fried onions.
  • Make it gluten-free by using tamari instead of soy sauce.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat the salmon separately to keep it tender and flaky.
