These warm summer nights call for some light and healthy cooking! Have you ever tried poke? I fell in love with this dish during my first Hawaiian vacation. It�s actually easy to create delicious poke right at home, where you can customize it with all your favorite ingredients! I made these spicy sockeye salmon poke bowls using the highest quality fish from Luxe Gourmets which ships directly to you.

Fresh wild Alaskan salmon is one of my favorite kinds of poke. The recipe I�m sharing has got a little spice, tang, sweetness and a whole lot of incredible seafood. I can�t wait to show you how to turn dinner into a homemade gourmet meal, let�s go!

The thing that is going to turn your poke experience into one of the most memorable homemade meals is the fish that you select. It�s become a ritual at our home to have Monday night be our salmon night. Why? It�s because this flaky fish is packed with protein, but it also has nutrient rich omega-3 fatty acids that provide heart and brain benefits for a healthy boost. It�s also very fast and easy to prepare, perfect for those busy weeknights.

In my opinion, the quality and taste of wild Alaskan salmon are the best. Just by taking a look at the dark ruby red color, you know that your meal is going to be special. I�ve found that the taste to has a gentle sweetness and gives almost a subtle buttery flavor with each bite, especially when eaten as sashimi or in these salmon poke bowls.

If you�re a seafood lover and want the same high-quality sushi-grade fish that�s reserved for Michelin-starred restaurants, treat yourself to Luxe Gourmets Sockeye salmon!

You only need five ingredients to make this spicy salmon poke bowl explode with flavor! The marinade is a combination of savory soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey and sesame oil. The abundant fish cubes infuse the wonderful flavors of the sauce, and you are in seafood bliss.

For those who like a little extra heat, a sriracha sauce made with Greek yogurt or mayonnaise can be drizzled on top to add some creaminess to the dish.

Excuse me while I fill my bowl until it overflows!

Do you remember how I told you the best part of poke bowls is customization? This is where you can add your own spin to the dish. I like a lot of vegetables like cabbage and carrots for crunch, brown rice, and some creamy avocado slices.

Don�t forget those homemade pickled cucumbers! The tangy sweet cucumbers help to balance the savory flavors in the sauce while cleaning your palate in between bites. You�ll catch me sneaking a few as I build my poke bowl, ha.

WHAT IS THE SAFEST WAY TO THAW FROZEN SUSHI-GRADE SALMON?

High-quality sushi grade fish can be purchased fresh or frozen. When thawing frozen food, there is a safe method to do this. Many frozen fish fillets come in a vacuum sealed package. The easiest method is to allow the fish to thaw on a paper towel lined sheet pan in the refrigerator. Cut one side of the package to allow air to flow and help quickly defrost the fish. When you thaw inside a refrigerator, it keeps the fish out of the temperature danger zone. You want the fish to be cool, flexible and not icy before using in your dish. Do not refreeze the fish, as the texture and quality of the tuna will not be as good.
