Equipment

  • 1 Grill
  • 1 Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz Salmon Filet
  • 1/2 cup Teriyaki Sauce (I use GHughes Sugar Free)
  • 1/2 cup White Rice (you can use any kind)
  • 1/2 Yellow Squash sliced
  • 1/2 Zucchini sliced
  • 1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)

Pineapple Salsa

  • 1 cup Diced Pineapple
  • 1/4 cup Diced Red Onion
  • 1/4 cup Diced Cucumber
  • 2 tbsp Chopped Cilantro
  • 1 tbsp Lime Juice
  • 1 tbsp Pineapple Juice
  • 2 tsp Honey (I use Wholesome Yum Keto)

Instructions
 

  • Marinate your salmon for 30 minutes to 2 hours. Set aside some of your sauce for glazing later.
  • Dice up your salsa, stir and let sit for 30 minutes.
  • Slice up your veggies, spray with EVOO and season with salt & pepper.
  • Once your grill is ready, place your salmon on and cook on each side for 3 to 4 minutes. Be sure it is cooked to temp 145.
  • While your salmon is cooking, heat your rice.
  • When your salmon is almost done cooking, brush on some of your teriyaki sauce.
  • Grab your bowl or plate and start putting it all together. Fluff out your rice on the bottom, place your veggies on the side, lay your salmon over, drizzle or glaze a little more of the sauce if you wish then spoon your salsa over that!
  • Top with sesame seeds, grilled pineapple, cilantro, lime and ENJOY!
