Zingy Salmon Brown Rice Salad Recipes

ZINGY SALMON & BROWN RICE SALAD

Steps:

• Cook the rice following pack instructions and 3 mins before it's done, add the soya beans. Drain and cool under cold running water.
• Meanwhile, put the salmon on a plate, then microwave on High for 3 mins or until cooked through. Allow to cool slightly, remove the skin with a fork, then flake.
• Gently fold the cucumber, spring onions, coriander and salmon into the rice and beans. In a separate bowl, mix the lime zest and juice, chilli and soy, then pour over the rice before serving.

BROWN RICE SALAD WITH SALMON

Steps:

• Combine rice, edamame, carrot, scallions and cooked vegetables.
• Season to taste with rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, pepper (and additional salt if desired).
• Divide between two containers/plates. Top with salmon broken into smaller pieces. I think this would be fine with canned salmon, which is already cooked. Just be sure to remove the bigger bones and skin first. Keep cool until ready to serve.

TANGY-SWEET SALMON AND RICE SALAD

Steps:

• Place the rice in a pot with 1 1/2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, cover, and reduce the heat to a simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice has absorbed all the liquid. Spread out the cooked rice on a rimmed baking sheet and chill.
• Meanwhile, in a shallow saute pan, place 1 cup water, the whole scallion, parsley, and peppercorns and bring to a simmer. Sprinkle the fish with salt and place in the pan. Cover and poach for 5 to 9 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove the salmon and peel off and discard the skin while still hot. Chill the salmon.
• Place the pine nuts, raisins, chopped scallions, lime zest and juice, and olive oil in a large bowl, season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, and toss to combine. Flake the salmon into the bowl and add the rice. Stir to combine. Let sit for a short while to allow the flavors to blend. Garnish with mint.

BROWN RICE SALAD

• Cook brown rice until tender, allow to cool.
• To prepare the dressing put the ingredients into a large jar with a tight fitting lid and shake well. Put aside.
