Creating a Salmon Taco Bowl can be fun and simple if you follow these steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Prepare the Salmon: In a small bowl, mix olive oil, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture evenly over both salmon fillets.
3. Bake the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
4. Cook the Quinoa or Rice: While the salmon is baking, prepare quinoa or rice according to package instructions.
5. Assemble the Bowl: In a large serving bowl, layer the cooked quinoa or rice as your base.
6. Add Additional Ingredients: Top the base with corn, black beans, sliced avocado, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro.
7. Finish with Salmon: Once the salmon is cooked, flake it into pieces and place it on top of the layered ingredients.
8. Serve: Squeeze fresh lime over the entire bowl for an extra burst of flavor.
9. Optional Toppings: Add a dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream if desired.
These steps will lead you to a delicious and healthy Salmon Taco Bowl that you can easily replicate.
