Ingredients

Units Scale

Salmon:

  • 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Bowl:

  • 1 cup cooked brown rice or cilantro lime rice
  • 1 cup black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, canned, or thawed from frozen)
  • 1 avocado, diced
  • 1/2 cup pico de gallo or salsa
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Place salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Bake for 12–15 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  2. While the salmon bakes, prepare the rice and bowl ingredients. To assemble, divide the rice, black beans, corn, avocado, pico de gallo, and red onion between two bowls. Top each with a cooked salmon fillet. Garnish with cilantro and lime wedges. Serve warm or chilled.

Notes

  • Swap in quinoa or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
  • Add shredded lettuce, cheese, or a drizzle of chipotle mayo or Greek yogurt for extra flavor.
  • Salmon can also be grilled or air fried.
