These Salmon Poke Bowls are full of healthy protein and packed with protein and delicious Japanese inspired flavors! You can customize these bowls with any of your favorite toppings and sauces. I will show you how I make my homemade slaw and crunchy topping as well if you want to add that to your bowls!
The salmon is marinated in a spicy soy marinade. These bowl have a kick to them, but not too much! Plus, when you mix it in with all of your veggies and other toppings, it isn’t too spicy at all. You can substitute the salmon for any kind of sushi grade salmon, shrimp, etc. The combinations are honestly endless! I had some extra marinade with this recipe so I decided to also marinate some shrimp and cooked it with my salmon.

Reasons to Love These Poke Bowls
- Quick & Easy: These are super and easy to make. For the salmon you just have to marinate it and plop it on a baking sheet!
- Extremely Customizable: You can really make these your own and make so many different variations. Feel free to use a different protein (or even a mix of different proteins) and add ins.
- Nutritious: The ingredients in poke bowls are typically super fresh, refreshing & healthy!
Ingredients For The Salmon
- Salmon – 2 pounds of fresh Atlantic salmon, or your favorite kind of salmon. You can also use sushi grade fish, tuna, shrimp, etc.
- Coconut Aminos – 1/4 cup of coconut aminos or low sodium soy sauce.
- Rice Vinegar – 1/4 cup of rice vinegar.
- Sesame Oil – 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. I don’t know about you, but I am obsessed with sesame oil haha! It really tops off any Japanese inspired dish in my opinion!
- Sriracha – 2 tablespoons of your favorite sriracha sauce.
- Green Onions – 4 green onions, sliced (whites only)
- Minced Garlic & Ginger – I did one teaspoon of each, but measure with your heart.
How To Make The Salmon
- In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the salmon and allow the salmon to marinate for 1-4 hours. Be sure to reserve some of the sauce before marinating the salmon to top your bowls off.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Line the salmon onto the baking sheet and discard any extra marinade. I ended up using my extra marinade to marinate some shrimp and add it to my bowls!
- Bake for 8 minutes and then broil for about 4 minutes.
- Assemble your bowls with the salmon and your desired toppings/add ins. I did sticky rice, cabbage slaw, crunchy topping, spicy mayo, avocado, cucumber, and edamame.
How To Make My Slaw
If you want a homemade slaw, combine the following in a mixing bowl:
- 4 cups shredded cabbage
- 2 tbsp. low sodium soy sauce or coconut aminos
- 2 tbsp. rice vinegar
- 1 tsp sesame seed oil
How To Make My Crunchy Topping
Again, this is totally optional, but I wanted to share how I make my crunchy topping in case you want to make one! Heat up a small skillet over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup of panko, 1 teaspoon of sesame seed oil, and 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic powder & onion powder. Cook until golden and toasty.
If you are on a low carb diet, you can use pork rinds in stead of panko. I don’t use panko normally, but since it’s so minimal and just being sprinkled on top of my bowls, I didn’t mind having a little bit of it!
