Ingredients
For the Salmon:
1 salmon fillet (10-12 oz), cubed
2 tbsp honey
2-3 tbsp Gladstone The Original Hot Sauce (bring the clean heat!)
2 tbsp mirin
2 tbsp soy sauce (or your preferred alternative. We love Naked and Saucy!)
Quick Pickled Cucumber:
1 small cucumber, thinly sliced
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 tbsp honey
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup water
For Serving:
2 cups cooked white rice
1 avocado, sliced
Sesame seeds (for that final touch)
Spicy Mayo Drizzle:
1/4 cup Kewpie mayo (or regular mayo)
1-2 tbsp Gladstone Original Hot Sauce (adjust for your spicy vibes)
Spicy Gladstone Salmon Bowl
Directions
Marinade the Salmon: In a bowl, whisk together honey, Gladstone Original Hot Sauce, mirin, and soy sauce. Toss the salmon cubes until fully coated in this spicy, flavour-packed marinade. Let it sit for 30 minutes in the fridge (if time allows) to soak in all that clean heat.
Quick-Pickle the Cucumber: While the salmon does its thing, mix rice wine vinegar, honey, salt, and water in a small bowl. Add the cucumber slices and let them soak up that tangy, refreshing goodness.
Cook the Salmon: Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook the marinated salmon for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally for even cooking. For extra flavour, pour in a little of the reserved marinade during the last minute or two to glaze the salmon with spicy perfection.
Make the Spicy Mayo: In a small bowl, stir together Kewpie mayo and Gladstone The Original Hot Sauce for the ultimate spicy drizzle. Adjust the heat level to your taste—because cooking with hot sauce should be as bold as you are.
Assemble Your Bowls: Start with a base of fluffy white rice. Layer on the spicy glazed salmon, creamy avocado slices, and pickled cucumber. Drizzle with spicy mayo, sprinkle sesame seeds on top, and admire your masterpiece.
Enjoy the Heat: Dig in immediately for the perfect spicy quick meal that hits all the right notes—fresh, flavourful, and full of clean heat.
