03 - Salt and black pepper to taste

→ Honey Sriracha Glaze

04 - 3 tablespoons honey
05 - 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
06 - 1 tablespoon soy sauce
07 - 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice

10 - 2 cups jasmine rice
11 - 2 1/2 cups water
12 - 1 cup shelled edamame
13 - 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
14 - 2 ripe avocados, sliced
15 - 2 tablespoons sesame seeds, optional

→ Sriracha Mayo

17 - 1/3 cup mayonnaise
18 - 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
19 - 1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

# Directions:

01 - Rinse rice under cold running water until water runs clear. Combine rice and water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 12 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand covered for 10 minutes. Fluff with a fork.
02 - In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and lime juice until smooth. Set aside.
03 - In a separate small bowl, combine honey, sriracha sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Mix until well combined.
04 - Season salmon fillets with salt and black pepper. Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side until nearly cooked through.
05 - Reduce heat to low. Pour honey sriracha glaze over the salmon. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, spooning sauce over fillets frequently, until salmon is fully cooked and well coated with glaze. Remove from heat.
06 - Divide cooked jasmine rice among 4 bowls. Arrange edamame, cucumber slices, and avocado on top of rice. Place one glazed salmon fillet in each bowl.
07 - Drizzle sriracha mayo over each bowl. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired. Serve immediately.
