Method

Prep the produce

Pat the Salmon dry and cut it into bite-size cubes if it is not already prepped. Wash the Cucumber and Carrots, then slice the cucumber and carrots, peel and thinly slice the Red Onion, halve, pit, and slice the Avocado, and trim and chop the Green Onion. Keep everything in separate piles so assembly is quick.

Marinate the salmon

In a medium bowl, toss the salmon with Garlic, Chilli Flakes, Paprika, Soy Sauce, Honey, and Lemon Juice until every cube is evenly coated. In a second bowl, make the quick Cucumber Salad by tossing the sliced cucumber with more soy sauce, a little garlic, a pinch of chilli flakes, and Rice Vinegar; let both bowls sit for 10 minutes so the flavors settle and the cucumber softens slightly. While they rest, whisk together Light Mayonnaise, Sriracha, and a teaspoon of lemon juice for the spicy lemon mayo, and get a non-stick skillet warming over medium-high.

Sear the salmon

Add the salmon cubes to the hot skillet in a single layer. Sear for 3 minutes without moving them, flip, then sear for 2 to 3 minutes more until the edges are browned and the centers are just opaque. Pour in any marinade left in the bowl and let it bubble for 1 minute until it turns into a glossy glaze that clings to the salmon.

Build the bowls

Divide the Jasmine Rice between bowls. Spoon the cucumber salad alongside or over the rice, then add the sliced carrots, red onion, and avocado. Top with the salmon, drizzle over the spicy lemon mayo, and finish with Green Onion and Sesame Seeds.
