Calories: 624kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 lb Atlantic salmon, skin removed and cut into 1 1/2" chunks
  • 10 oz frozen edamame, thawed (283 grams)
  • 2 small Haas avocados, sliced (200 grams)
  • 1 cup English cucumber, sliced thinly (120 grams)
  • 1 small Fresno pepper, sliced thinly (14 grams)
  • 2/3 cup jasmine rice, prepared according to package directions (121 grams)
  • 1/3 cup green onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds (8 grams)
  • 1 tsp sesame oil (5 grams)

Gochuchang Mayo

Marinade and Sauce

  • 6 tbsp low sodium soy sauce (3 fl oz)
  • 1/4 cup O'Food Gochujang Korean Chili Sauce (72 grams)
  • 1/4 cup honey (2 fl oz)
  • 2 tbsp fresh grated ginger (12 grams)
  • 2 tsp sesame oil (10 grams)
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes for extra spice

Instructions

Make the marinade/sauce.

  • Whisk together all marinade ingredients until combined, then divide in half. Pour half of the marinade over the salmon chunks, tossing until the salmon is evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours.
  • Heat a small skillet or pan over medium-high heat. Add sesame oil and once hot, add sliced Fresno peppers. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, then add remaining marinade. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer. Simmer for 5-10 minutes or until sauce begins to thicken and has reduced by about half. Remove sauce to a bowl or jar and set aside to cool.

Air fry the salmon.

  • Pre-heat air fryer to 400°, then spray the bottom with non-stick cooking spray. Add salmon chunks to the air fryer in a single layer, ensuring the pieces are not touching one another. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer. Air fry at 400° for 6-7 minutes, watching to ensure the edges do not burn.
  • Carefully remove the salmon chunks from the air fryer to a shallow bowl. I like to use a spatula instead of tongs for this to keep the salmon from flaking apart. Drizzle the salmon with the reduced sauce and toss very gently to coat the salmon evenly.

Assemble the bowls.

  • Whisk together the gochujang mayo ingredients until well combined.
  • Add cooked rice to the bottom of your bowl, then layer with edamame, sliced cucumbers, sliced avocados, and salmon. Top with gochujang mayo, sesame seeds, and green onions before serving.
