Ingredients
- 1 individually wrapped frozen salmon fillet thawed
- 1/2 package Ben’s Original Ready Rice Cilantro Lime Rice
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 sweet pepper sliced
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
- Smoked paprika
- Store-bought teriyaki sauce
- Sesame seeds for topping
- Greek yogurt for serving optional
Optional homemade teriyaki sauce:
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
Instructions
- Preheat your air fryer or Wonder Oven to 400 degrees. I usually set the oven to 400 while I prep everything else so it’s fully heated and ready to go.
- Place the broccoli florets and sliced peppers in a bowl. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika until evenly coated.
- Pat the thawed salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and brush generously with teriyaki sauce. If you’re making homemade teriyaki sauce, whisk together the soy sauce, maple syrup or brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic powder, and ginger in a small bowl.
- Arrange the salmon and vegetables in the air fryer basket or on the Wonder Oven tray. Air fry at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the vegetables are slightly roasted around the edges.
- While everything cooks, microwave half the package of cilantro lime ready rice according to package directions. It only takes about 90 seconds.
- Assemble your bowl with rice on the bottom, roasted vegetables on one side, and teriyaki salmon on top.
- Finish with sesame seeds and a dollop of Greek yogurt if you love creamy sauces and dips as much as I do. The cool yogurt with the sweet-savory salmon is actually such a good combo.
