Ingredients

• 1 cup Rice of choice (washed) 
• 4 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divide into 2 tablespoons each)
• 10-ounce Salmon Fillet (patted dry)
• 4 tablespoons Teriyaki Sauce
• 8-ounce Spinach (washed)
• 1 tablespoon Rice Wine Vinegar
• Furikake
• 1 Avocado (sliced)

Directions

Cook the rice according to manufacturer’s instructions.

In a medium skillet, heat two (2) tablespoons of olive oil until shimmering. Add the salmon fillet (skin side down) and spoon the teriyaki sauce on top. Cook for one (1) minute and do not move the salmon! Flip the salmon and cook for additional one (1) minute.

In a separate skillet, heat two (2) tablespoons of olive oil until shimmering. Add the spinach and cook until wilted (about 2 to 3 minutes). Add the rice wine vinegar and a shake of Furikake. Remove from heat.

On a bed of rice, top with salmon, spinach, and sliced avocado. Feel free to add an additional spoonful of teriyaki sauce over the salmon.
