Cooking Tips

• Make sure to marinate the salmon for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate the fish.
• Grill the salmon over medium-high heat to get a nice char on the outside while keeping the inside moist and tender.
• Feel free to customize the toppings based on your preferences. Add sliced avocado, chopped peanuts, or a squeeze of lime for extra flavor.
• You can also substitute the brown rice with quinoa or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.

Storage and Serving

• These bowls are best served immediately while the salmon is still warm and the vegetables are fresh.
• If you have leftovers, store the components separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. Reheat the salmon and rice before assembling the bowls.
• The Thai dressing can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. Shake well before using.
