For the Salmon:
1 pound salmon fillet, cut into 4 pieces
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
For the Cauliflower:
1 head cauliflower, cut into florets
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Make the Honey Soy Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes (if using).
Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish. Pour the honey soy glaze over the salmon and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours.
Roast the Cauliflower: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss cauliflower florets with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
Cook the Salmon: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated salmon fillets and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
Assemble the Bowls: Divide the roasted cauliflower among bowls. Top with the cooked salmon. Drizzle with any remaining honey soy glaze.
You can use any type of salmon you like for this recipe.
For a spicier dish, add more red pepper flakes to the marinade.
Serve the salmon bowls with your favorite side dishes, such as rice or quinoa.
