Ingredients

Honey Lime Salmon Bites

1.5 lbs salmon cut into 1.5-inch cubes
2 tbsp honey
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 garlic cloves minced
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
Avocado oil for searing

Coconut Rice

1 cup jasmine rice
1 cup full-fat unsweetened coconut milk
3/4 cup water
1/2 tsp kosher salt

Avocado Salsa

1 ripe avocado pitted and cubed
2 mini cucumbers chopped
2 scallions chopped
1/4 cup cilantro finely chopped
Juice from 1 lime

Instructions

To make the salmon, whisk together the honey, lime juice, soy sauce and garlic. Place the salmon in a shallow dish and pour over the marinade so all the pieces are coated. Set aside while you make the rice and salsa.
For the coconut rice, bring the jasmine rice, coconut milk, water and salt to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce the heat to low, cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and keep covered until ready to serve.
For the avocado salsa, mix together all ingredients and season with salt to taste. Set aside.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat for a couple minutes until hot. Add a drizzle of avocado oil and use tongs to place each salmon cube in the pan. Sear for 2 minutes, or until browned. Flip and repeat for the remaining sides until the salmon is just cooked through.
Turn down the heat to low and add the remaining marinade. Once it thickens, tilt the pan and use a spoon to baste the salmon with the sauce. Serve immediately over coconut rice with avocado salsa.
