These Grilled Salmon Bowls are the perfect balance of fresh, light, and satisfying. Tender salmon is grilled with a bright lime finish, then served over fluffy coconut rice and topped with sweet mango salsa, creamy avocado, and fresh cilantro. It’s an easy weeknight dinner that feels restaurant-worthy and is packed with vibrant summer flavors in every bite.

    Grilled Salmon Bowls

    For the Salmon

    • 4 salmon filets
    • Olive oil
    • Kosher salt
    • Black pepper
    • Garlic powder
    • Zest and juice of 1 lime

    For the Coconut Rice

    • 1½ cups jasmine rice
    • 1 can full-fat coconut milk
    • 1 cup water
    • ½ teaspoon salt

    For Serving

    • Store-bought mango salsa
    • Diced avocado
    • Fresh cilantro
    • Lime wedges

    Optional toppings:

    • sliced cucumber
    • jalapeño
    • shredded cabbage

        Directions:

        1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
        2. Rinse rice well. Add rice, coconut milk, water, and salt to a saucepan. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 18 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5–10 minutes before fluffing.
        3. Pat salmon dry and lightly coat with olive oil. Season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
