Begin by cooking the brown rice. Rinse the rice under cold water, then combine 1 cup of brown rice with 2 cups of water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 25 minutes until the rice is cooked and water is absorbed. Set aside to cool slightly.
While the rice is cooking, prepare the salmon. Cut the salmon fillet into bite-sized cubes.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the low-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, and rice vinegar until well-combined.
Add the salmon cubes to the bowl and toss to coat evenly in the marinade. Let the salmon marinate for at least 10 minutes in the refrigerator.
In a separate saucepan, cook the edamame according to package instructions, typically steaming or boiling for 3-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
Prepare the rest of the vegetables. Dice the cucumber and avocado, shred the carrot, and slice the green onions.
Once the rice is done and slightly cooled, divide it between two bowls.
Top each bowl with marinated salmon, edamame, cucumber, avocado, shredded carrot, and green onions.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top and add sliced nori sheets.
If desired, drizzle sriracha over the poke bowl for some heat.
Serve immediately and enjoy your high protein salmon poke bowl!
