Ingredients
  

For the Hot Honey:

  • 1 cup honey
  • 2 teaspoons chili flakes
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

For The Bowl:

  • 4 salmon fillets about 1 lb/500g
  • 4 small heads pak choi halved
  • 1 cup snap peas trimmed
  • 4 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 4 cups cooked sushi rice
  • 1 avocado cubed
  • 1 green onion thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon mixed sesame seeds

Instructions
 

Make The Hot Honey

  • Add the honey, chili flakes, apple cider vinegar, and salt into a saucepan over a low heat. Stir it together and bring the honey to a gentle simmer. Let the honey simmer for 5 minutes. Then turn off the heat and allow the honey and chili flavors to meld together for 10 minutes.
  • Once the honey and chili have infused, strain the hot honey through a fine mesh sieve into a jar.

Cook The Salmon

  • Preheat your air fryer at 380F for 10 minutes. Use a sharp knife to remove the skin from the salmon fillets. Slice the salmon into 1-inch cubes. Coat the salmon with ¼ cup of the hot honey then place it into your air fryer in a single layer. Cook the salmon for 10 – 12 minutes, flipping it halfway through.

Cook The Vegetables

  • In the meantime, sauté the pak choi and snap peas in a non-stick skillet with a drizzle of neutral oil for 5 minutes.

Assemble Your Bowls

  • Divide the rice between four bowls. Top with the vegetables, sticky salmon, avocado cubes, green onions, and sesame seeds. Drizzle each bowl with some soy sauce and a little extra hot honey and enjoy.

Notes

Make Ahead Tip: The hot honey can be made in advance and stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
Serving Suggestions: For an extra kick, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a squeeze of fresh lime juice just before serving.
