Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with aluminum foil and place salmon fillets on top.

Step 2

Stir soy sauce, avocado oil, chili-garlic sauce, ginger, honey, sesame oil, and lime juice together in a small bowl; brush over salmon fillets. Set remaining sauce aside for dressing.

Step 3

Bake salmon in the center of the preheated oven until it flakes easily with a fork, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool, about 15 minutes.

Step 4

Divide rice evenly between 4 bowls and top with salmon fillets. Distribute carrots, snow peas, avocado, and bell peppers evenly between the bowls; sprinkle green onion over top.

Step 5

Stir reserved soy sauce mixture with peanut butter, rice wine vinegar, and garlic powder; add water until dressing reaches desired consistency. Drizzle over the bowls and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
