Directions

  1. Marinate the salmon: Brush fillets with soy sauce, sesame oil, a pinch of salt and pepper, and the Angus & Oink Sriracha Seasoning. Set aside for 10 minutes.
  2. Cook the salmon: Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Sear salmon skin-side down until crispy, about 4–5 minutes, then flip and cook another 2–3 minutes until cooked through. Alternatively, you can use an air fryer for this stage.
  3. Prepare greens: In a small pan, sauté Asian greens with sriracha for 2–3 minutes until wilted but still vibrant.
  4. Prepare cucumber: Lightly smash cucumber slices with the flat side of a knife or rolling pin. Mix with a little salt, rice vinegar, sesame oil and soy sauce, then set aside.
  5. Assemble the bowl: Divide brown rice between two bowls. Top with kimchi, sriracha greens, smashed cucumber, and salmon fillets.
  6. Garnish: Sprinkle with sesame seeds, spring onion, lime wedges and a drizzle of extra sriracha if desired, then serve.
