Instructions
 

Cooking Steps:

  • Step 1: Prepare the Cauliflower - Start by cutting the cauliflower into florets. Rinse them under cold water and then pat dry with a towel. This will ensure they roast nicely without becoming soggy.
  • Step 2: Roast the Cauliflower - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss the cauliflower florets with olive oil and a pinch of salt on a baking sheet. Roast for about 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and tender, stirring halfway through.
  • Step 3: Prepare the Salmon - While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the salmon. In a mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of hoisin sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, and garlic powder. Mix well.
  • Step 4: Cook the Salmon - Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon and pour the hoisin sauce mixture over the top. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Step 5: Spiralize the Carrot - While the salmon is cooking, spiralize or julienne the carrot into thin strands. This adds a beautiful crunch to your bowl.
  • Step 6: Assemble the Bowl - Once everything is cooked, it’s time to assemble your bowl. Start with a base of roasted cauliflower, add the cooked salmon on top, then layer in the spiralized carrot, diced avocado, and chopped scallions.
  • Step 7: Drizzle and Serve - Drizzle with additional hoisin sauce if desired, and serve with lime wedges on the side. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top for an extra zing!

Notes

  • Store leftover salmon and veggies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • For best texture, keep the avocado separate until you’re ready to eat.
  • You can reheat the salmon gently in the microwave or on the stovetop.
