This bowl brings together several simple components into one vibrant meal. Fragrant coconut lime rice forms the base, topped with crispy caramelized sweet potatoes and pineapple, roasted, blackened salmon, creamy avocado, and a drizzle of bright cilantro lime oil. The balance of warm spices, fresh herbs, and citrus makes every bite feel satisfying but still light.

Blackened Salmon
Instructions
Blackened Salmon
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Combine all spices in a small bowl. Stir until evenly blended.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the salmon dry and place it skin-side down on the baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil and rub evenly over the surface.
Sprinkle the blackened seasoning generously over the salmon.
Roast for 10–12 minutes, depending on thickness, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Cilantro Lime Oil
Add cilantro, olive oil, lime juice, honey if using and salt to a blender.
If using garlic, add just half of a small clove so it doesn’t overpower the cilantro oil.
Notes
Notes
If preparing the coconut lime rice and roasted sweet potatoes and pineapple at the same time, allow additional time for those components.
