Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6oz each)
  • 2 tbsp white miso paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 2 cups cooked sushi rice
  • 1 large cucumber
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tsp chili crisp
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 scallion thinly sliced

Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the miso paste, honey, sesame oil, and grated ginger until smooth.
3
Place the salmon fillets on a parchment-lined baking sheet and brush generously with the miso-honey glaze.
4
Bake for 12-14 minutes until the fish flakes easily and the glaze is caramelized.
5
While the salmon bakes, smash the cucumber using the side of a chef's knife, chop into bite-sized chunks, and toss with rice vinegar and a pinch of salt.
6
To assemble, portion the warm sushi rice into bowls, top with the miso-glazed salmon, and arrange the smashed cucumbers alongside.
7
Finish the dish with a drizzle of chili crisp, a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds, and fresh scallions for an aromatic, textural masterpiece.
