Notes

Nutritional information will vary based off add-ins. This calculation used via a wordpress plug in is much higher vs what I calculate on my own for some reason.

I prefer sticky rice for this however you can use white, jasmine, brown or whichever is your favorite. Use as much or as little as you desire.

Same goes for the sauce make as much or as little as you feel you'd enjoy. I go a little heavy on the sauce myself.

If your salmon has skin, season the skin and cook that side first, after flipping you can carefully pull the partially crisped skin off and set it aside. Once your salmon is finished cooking, toss the skins back in the pan (carefully, they may pop a bit) and finish crisping them up. Set on a wire rack for 2 minutes and enjoy the crispy treat! Salmon skin has a ton of benefits and its delicious!
