Teriyaki Salmon Bites

For as long as I can remember salmon has always been my go-to fish meal. There is just something about the meaty texture of salmon on a bed of fluffy rice. This dish that I have created combines my love for salmon with my love for Asian food using staple aromatics often found in Asian cuisine.

In this recipe I will be showing you how to make my surprisingly easy one-pot sweet yet sour, sticky, garlicky, gingery, teriyaki bites of salmon deliciousness. This dish can be enjoyed with either rice, noodles, or even by itself as an appetizer.
