I don’t know about you, but I love making bowl for dinner lately. You can add any protein, veggie or starch of choice! They are quick to put together, easy for meal prep and a perfect balance of nutrients.
This Salmon Fried Rice Bowl was made with very quick ingredients . I actually used a frozen blend fried rice and spiced it up. I know some people aren’t for the frozen veggies or canned items that are a short cut but life gets busy and it’s good to have a these items in the freezer for those quick and healthy meals.
Salmon Fried Rice Bowl
Ingredients:
Rice:
1 small yellow onion, diced
6 mini colored peppers, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
16 oz bag frozen fried rice
2-3 eggs
1-2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado cooking spray
1-2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
sprinkle pepper
Salmon:
1lb salmon, cut into bite size pieces (try and cut around same size for even cooking)
1 tablespoon of olive oil or avocado spray
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons garlic powder
Sprinkle salt & pepper
Toppings:
Avocado, sliced
Fresh jalapeño, sliced
green onion, sliced
sriracha
Directions: Heat a medium skillet on high heat. Pre-heat air fryer for 4 minutes. In a medium bowl add in the salmon pieces, oil and seasoning. Mix well to make sure salmon is evenly coded. Add the salmon to air fryer pan or basket. Cook at 400° for 8-10 minutes flipping halfway through. (Note: Cooking time will vary based on air fryer and sizes of salmon pieces)


In the heated skillet add the olive oil and let heat for a minute. Next add in the onion, peppers and garlic and cook 2-3 minutes until it becomes fragrant. Add in the frozen fried rice next and cook 3-4 minutes. Mixing often to avoid sticking. Season the mixture with seasoning (add other flavors if you’d like) and drizzle in soy sauce and let cook another few minutes. Make a well in the middle of the rice, add in the eggs and scramble. Let cook 1-2 minutes and then mix all the rice together.




To assemble the bowl add the fried rice to the bottom and top with the salmon bites. Add your desired toppings. I used avocado, green onion, jalapeño and sriracha. Enjoy!
