Crispy Honey Ginger Salmon Bowl.

This colorful Crispy Honey Ginger Salmon Bowl is full of flavor and so simple to prepare. Made with flavorful ginger and cooked in a salty-spicy butter sauce until crispy. The salmon is cooked until caramelized around the edges then added to bowls of coconut rice. It’s served with a fresh bright mango salsa with candied jalapeños for a balance of spicy, sweet, and savory flavor. Altogether, it’s so delicious. And the best news – it takes just minutes to prepare!

Starting the week off with lots of color and flavor! After the most beautiful summer weekend, I’m feeling so ready to take on the week. I’m excited for everything coming my way, including this week’s recipes!

So many summer recipes, and it all starts with this salmon bowl. Yes, another rice bowl and more salmon. At the moment, this is what we’re craving most!

I’m very into recipes that we can quickly assemble and serve bowl-style over rice. Anything over rice in our family is always welcomed. And more times than not, the recipes are very no fuss.

Here are the details

Start with the salmon. The key to getting salmon crispy? Make sure to pat it down with a kitchen towel to remove any excess moisture. Having a super dry piece of fish ensures that it will cook up wonderfully.

Now, let the salmon sit while you make the salsa. This will help dry the salmon even more.

As always, the salsa is essential. But it’s the candied jalapeños that make this mango peach salsa special.

You can buy candied jalapeños at the store. They’re usually right next to the pickled jalapeños and labeled sweet and spicy. This means they have sweetness added, that’s what you want!

So you can buy those or make my simple candied jalapeños. They’re simply warmed honey and jalapeños mixed together. Just 2 ingredients, so simple, so easy, super delicious. I’ve been using them in everything lately, I’m addicted.

For the rest of the salsa, there are mangos, peaches, lime, cilantro, basil, and then the candied jalapeños. Just mix it all together. Simple.

Then I make a quick sauce for the salmon. Some tamari, fish sauce, chili paste, and ginger.

Finally, finish with the salmon. Cook the salmon in butter until the butter browns and turns the salmon’s skin crisp. The butter is my secret. It really creates the perfect crispy-skinned salmon, trust me.

Pour in the sauce and let it thicken. This only takes a few minutes. As soon as the salmon is cooked to your liking, remove it from the heat.

I like to serve the chunks of crispy salmon over bowls of steamed coconut rice. I’m sharing the coconut rice recipe in the notes so you can use it too! Then I like to add tons of salsa and fresh basil to finish.

If you’re working quickly, this can honestly come together in 20 minutes. But we’ll say 30 just to be safe!

I know it doesn’t seem like much but I promise this is so good. The sauce thickens and glazes the salmon creating the perfect sticky sauce. It’s such a flavorful dish. That salsa adds a spicy-sweet element, plus plenty of fun summery color and flavor too.

A great meal to prepare on busy nights. Especially warm nights. This recipe requires no oven, it’s quick-cooking, and done on the stove. Gotta love that!
