I&#039;m obsessed with this quick Korean-inspired Gochujang Salmon Rice Bowl. It’s a flavorful meal in under 30-minutes! Air fryer or oven!

Korean Salmon Rice Bowl

salmon

olive oil spray

ginger

soy sauce

gochujang

mirin

soy sauce (plus more for serving)

sugar

sesame oil

garlic (minced)

rice

mini cucumbers (sliced)

scallions (sliced thin on an angle)

black sesame seeds

Combine glaze ingredients together in a small bowl.

Place salmon in a large bowl, add the ginger, soy sauce and let it sit 5 minutes.

Spray the basket with oil.

Place salmon in the air fryer basket in an even layer and air fry 400F about 5 minutes, shaking halfway. Brush the glaze on the salmon and cook 1 minute more, until the salmon is cooked through in the center and browned all over.

Air Fryer Method:

Preheat the oven to 425F. Place salmon on a sheet pan in an even layer and bake 8 minutes. Brush the glaze on the salmon and cook 2 to 3 more minute more, until the salmon is cooked through in the center and the glaze is browned all over.

Oven Method

Serve 3/4 cup rice and 1 cucumber in each bowl. Top with salmon, sesame seeds and scallions.

Serve with more soy sauce, if desired.

To Serve

Delicious and came together fast.  The air fryer cooked the salmon perfectly

Delicious and easy! What a great week night dinner with great flavors.  I took some liberities with the veggies and served it over califlower rice. Loved it

Yummy although salty so maybe next time I’ll add less soy sauce :)

Incredible! I haven’t made a meal this good in a while. It doesn’t take too long either! Oh my gosh. So. Good. Thank you

So good! Added some cauliflower rice to bulk it up a bit, plus some avocado. SOO good! Definitely a keeper.

I make this recipe all the time and it's always amazing. I also add avocado on top of the bowl and sprinkle with furikake flakes.

This was so easy to make from start to finish! I used cauliflower rice instead of regular rice. The marinade for the salmon and the glaze was easy to whip up in minutes and air frying the salmon was so easy - the glaze glazed and the salmon was perfectly cooked! I will definitely make this again!

Recipe was good! My mom enjoyed. We like sauce on our rice, so I would make more glaze in the future to put on top.

Another winner! Easy, fast, healthy, and delicious! This will be a staple in our rotation. I can’t wait to make it again. I don’t have an air fryer so I made the salmon in the oven. Wonderful!

My whole family LOVED this meal. My husband said, “If I was on my death bed and this was the last meal I ate, I wouldn’t be disappointed.”  😂

Delicious and easy to make! My family loved it.

Get ready to dive into some seriously amazing flavors with this Gochujang Salmon! Enjoy juicy, crispy skin salmon coated in a sweet and spicy Gochujang glaze in less than 30 minutes!

Gochujang Salmon

gochujang paste

lime (juiced)

honey

rice wine vinegar

red pepper flakes (optional)

salmon filets

olive oil (or avocado oil)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

green onions (for garnish)

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

In a bowl, add the gochujang, garlic, lime juice, honey, sesame oil, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, and red pepper flakes. Whisk well and set the bowl aside.

Pat the salmon filets dry and season with a bit of salt and pepper.

Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet set over high heat. Place the salmon, skin side down, on the hot pan and sear for 3 minutes to brown the skin. While it’s searing, brush the flesh with the gochujang glaze.

Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until the fish is just cooked through to your desired doneness, 8-10 minutes. Aim for an internal temperature of 125-135 degrees F, as the temperature will continue to rise a bit even after pulling the skillet from the heat.

Let the fish rest 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onion, and serve as desired.

Followed the recipe almost to a t. Only change was I drizzled half the marinade on the salmon, wrapped in in foil and baked at 400 for 10 minutes and then seared on medium heat for 1 minute with the rest of the marinade. 

The result was spicy, flaky, melt in your mouth salmon

I made your gochujang salmon with my freshly caught Lake Michigan salmon fillets.  Your fish recipe was super easy to make and it tasted amazing!!  I will be making your salmon recipe again!

I needed a new salmon recipe and yours really delivered. What amazing taste that Gochujang delivered! This will be making a regular appearance in my house!

We had this for dinner and it was spectacular!!!
I followed the recipe exactly and served it with some stir fried greens and some jasmine rice. DELISH!!
It was so easy to make and tasted like I had been to a restaurant and ordered a to go option! 
We'll definitely be having this again :)

My whole family loved this recipe! It was a great change from our normal salmon recipes.  I'll be making this again and again over the next few weeks!

Salmon glazed with gochujang baked then broiled in the oven. Sweet, savory, and just warm to the tongue. Simple to make and doesn&#039;t require marination.

I tried this recipe last night and it turned out so good! I love gochuchang and Korean flavors in general and glad that I can use it for salmon.
