Tips & Tricks for an Even More Decadent Crispy Spicy Salmon Poke Bowl!
🔥 Pro Tips
- Ultra-fresh salmon is key! Choose sushi-grade salmon for the best texture and flavor.
- Max flavor in minimal time! Let the salmon marinate for at least 15 minutes to soak up all the delicious flavors.
- Ultimate crispiness! Use panko breadcrumbs instead of regular breadcrumbs for a light, ultra-crunchy coating.
🧊 Storage & Meal Prep
- Make-ahead sushi rice: Prepare the rice in advance and store it in the fridge. Before serving, warm it slightly to restore its soft texture.
- Crispy salmon on demand! Breaded salmon loses its crunch if refrigerated. To save time, marinate it ahead of time and coat it with breadcrumbs just before cooking.
- Storage: Poke bowls taste best fresh, but the ingredients can be stored separately in the fridge for up to 2 days.
🥩 Customization & Variations
- Not a salmon fan? Swap it for tuna, shrimp, or crispy tofu for a vegetarian version.
- Flavor explosion! Add toppings like crispy wonton chips, fried onions, or toasted sesame seeds.
- Gourmet sauce hack! Mix spicy mayo, sesame oil, and soy sauce for an irresistible umami kick.
🍽️ Perfect Pairings
- Fresh mango – a sweet contrast to balance the spicy salmon.
- Crunchy edamame – extra protein and texture.
- Pickled radishes – tangy and crisp for a flavor boost.
Get ready, because this crispy spicy salmon poke bowl is about to blow your mind with crunch, heat, and pure umami goodness! 🔥😏

Preparation
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, put the rice and add a good drizzle of olive oil. Mix and cook for 2 minutes, stirring.
- Add water, mix and cover. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, mix and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
- In a bowl, except for the Panko breadcrumbs, put the ingredients for the sauce, season with salt and pepper and mix. Add the salmon, mix and set aside in the fridge. Add Panko just before serving and mix.
- Divide the rice between bowls and add the salmon. Fill bowls with cucumber slices, carrot juliennes, radish slices and edamame. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onion.
For optimum freshness and quality, use sashimi-grade salmon. It should be fresh and ideally purchased from a reputable fishmonger.
A poke bowl (which means “to slice” in Hawaiian) is made with fresh marinated fish, rice and vegetables. The recipe is quite simple, and you can adjust your bowl as you wish. If you’ve tried this dish in a restaurant and now want to make it at home, follow this recipe to learn how to make the best tuna poke bowl.
Yes, poke bowls are pretty healthy. They contain lots of vegetables, lean proteins and fruit. Tuna is an excellent source of protein. Edamame beans also contain protein. They also contain long-grain white rice, which sounds healthy to me, unless you avoid carbs.
