Microwave Salmon Rice Bowl
For the quickest, flakiest, most perfectly cooked salmon – use your microwave! This whole meal, salmon and veggies cooks in 5 minutes, and it comes out perfectly every time! It’s my go-to when I need a healthy lunch and am short on time. Made in my Anyday microwave dish which I love because it’s glass and has a vented lid. If you try it, let me know what you think in the comments!
Salmon Rice Bowls Ingredients
Rice: I meal prep brown rice in portions and freeze it so I can pop it in the microwave any time. You can also buy frozen brown rice. Salmon Rice Bowl Sauce: Sweet red chili sauce, sriracha, freshly grated ginger. Salmon: Use a six-ounce filet. The fish can be fresh or frozen and thawed. Baby Bok Choy: Halve one bok choy lengthwise. Flavor: Season the bok choy with a pinch of salt and drizzle of sesame oil.

Here’s how I make this easy salmon rice bowl recipe.
Variations
Rice: Swap brown rice with white rice. If you don’t have frozen rice, you can make your own or buy a microwavable rice pouch for faster cooking. Low Carb: Swap the rice for cauliflower rice. Vegetables: If you can’t find baby bok choy, fresh spinach, broccoli, cauliflower rice, or edamame would also work. Spicy Salmon Rice Bowls: These bowls have a bit of a kick, but feel free to add more sriracha if you like extra spicy food.
