Chili Maple Lime Salmon Bowls with Forbidden Rice

Step 1

First cook the rice: Add 1 cup of water with 1/2 cup of forbidden rice to a small pot and place over high heat. Bring to a boil, the reduce heat to low, cover and cook for 25 minutes. Once rice is done stir in mango, coconut oil, edamame and salt.

Step 2

While the rice cooks, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the glaze from burning. Place salmon filets 2 inches apart on parchment paper, skinside down.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together maple syrup, lime juice, chili powder and garlic. Pour or generously brush the glaze over the salmon, reserving 1 tablespoon for glazing once salmon is done. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until salmon is done and flakes with a fork.

Step 4

Divide mango & rice mixture between two bowls, and add salmon on top. Garnish with green onion and cilantro if desired.

Step 5

If you time this correctly, this can easily be a 30 minute dinner from start to finish.
