If you love sushi like I do, then you’re going to love this refreshing dish full of healthy fats and flavor without the excess carbs. We will be replacing the rice with low-carb cauliflower rice that will give us similar texture that comes in a traditional poke bowl.
Here is what you need, purchase wild caught salmon or tuna or both and make sure it has been frozen solid for more than 24 hours to ensure the bacteria has been destroyed, once that is taken care of, then follow the directions below
Ingredients (Serves 2)
Wild Caught Salmon or Tuna
- ½ lb salmon or tuna, boneless and skinless
- 2 tbsp coconut amino’s
- 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon
- 1 tsp Sriracha sauce
- ¼ tsp of sea salt
- 1 tsp. coconut vinegar
- 1 tsp. minced garlic
- 1 tablespoons of MCT oil
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
Cauliflower Rice
- 1 head cauliflower
- 3 tbsp. melted butter
- 1 tsp. oregano
- sea salt and ground pepper to taste
Toppings
- 1 Large Avocado peeled and seeded
- 1 medium green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 medium cucumber peeled and chopped
- 1 bunch of cilantro chopped
- 3 cups mixed leafy greens
Directions
- First, you will wash and pat dry the salmon or tuna, next cut into smaller pieces about ½ inch in size.
- Next, in a bowl add the coconut amino’s, fresh lemon juice, sriracha, coconut vinegar, minced garlic, sesame oil, MCT oil, sea salt, sesame seeds and mix in the salmon or tuna, then place in a covered bowl inside the fridge.
- Then, cut the cauliflower into smaller floret chunks to add into the food processor and blend until it has the consistency of rice, but don’t overdo it or your rice will turn into a puree.
- Once done, place a large frying pan over medium-high heat and once hot, add the butter, then add in the now riced cauliflower. Also, add on the seasonings, the oregano, and salt and pepper to taste. And cook for around 10 min, make sure to stir it to avoid burning.
- Then separate the cauliflower rice into two large bowls, then split the leafy greens in half and place on top of each of the cauliflower rice bowls, next split the marinated salmon or tuna in two and add to each bowl.
- Next peel and remove the seed from the avocado and slice, then serve half to each bowl. then thinly slice the green onions and add them on, next chop the cilantro and add to the bowls.
- Then peel and chop the cucumber and split between bowls. Lastly sprinkle a bit more of the sesame seeds on each bowl and enjoy!
