- Remove the salmon from the fridge to bring it to room temperature, then season with salt and pepper.
- In a bowl, whisk together coconut aminos, honey, and minced garlic to make the sauce.
- Heat avocado oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the salmon skin-side up for 2-3 minutes until golden.
- Remove the skillet from heat and pour the honey-garlic sauce over the salmon, gently tossing to coat.
- In a serving bowl, place the cooked rice as the base, then top with glazed salmon and arranged vegetables.
- Garnish with any remaining sauce, sesame seeds, and chives, if desired.
