  2. In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down and cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes until crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until opaque.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, rice vinegar, and sriracha. Set aside.
  4. Assemble your bowl with cooked rice as the base, topped with crispy salmon, avocado, cucumber, carrots, and edamame.
  5. Drizzle the prepared sauce over the assembled bowl and garnish with sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
