Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups cooked rice or riced cauliflower
  • 2 cups cooked carrots or raw carrots (peeled and sliced)
  • 8 ounce frozen bag shelled edamame (cooked according to package)
  • ½ cup teriyaki sauce
  • 4 boneless salmon fillets
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 cup zucchini (cubed into 1" pieces)
  • 2 cups onion (cubed into 1" pieces)
  • Optional garnish: Yum Yum Sauce
  • optional garnish: sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Place salmon in a plastic bag or dish, and pour teriyaki marinade over the top. Seal/cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
  • Cook rice and edamame according to package instructions.
  • Add carrots and ⅛ cup water to a microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave for 3 minutes until tender. (Note: you can stir fry the raw carrots along with the zucchini and onions. See step 5 below)
  • In a 12" skillet, preheat oil over medium-high heat. Place salmon in the skillet flesh side down (skin up) and sear for 3 minutes.
  • Turn salmon over and add remaining teriyaki marinade. Cook another 3 to 4 minutes or until salmon is done (just starting to flake).
  • Remove salmon from the skillet, cover with foil, and keep warm.
  • Add zucchini and onions to the skillet (feel free to saute raw carrots along with the zucchini instead of microwaving). Stir fry the vegetables until tender, approximately 5 minutes.
  • Serve salmon over cooked rice with zucchini and onions, edamame, and sweet carrots. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and drizzle with additional teriyaki sauce and yum yum sauce if desired.

Kori's Tips

  • Don't miss all of our helpful hints, substitution ideas, cooking tips, and other delicious recipes that can be found in our post. Check it out!
  • SUBSTITUTIONS: Use chicken, pork, or beef instead of salmon (additional cooking time will be required). Feel free to swap any favorite vegetables in this dish and remove the ones you don't like. To make this keto: use riced cauliflower, substitute broccoli or green beans for the edamame, and make our Sugar Free Teriyaki Sauce.
  • TOP TIPS: Do not overcook the salmon. Cook only until it just begins to flake and the internal temperature reaches between 125 and 130-degrees F. The salmon will continue to cook once removed from the heat.
