Tips:

Choose the right salmon. For this recipe, it's best to use a wild-caught salmon fillet. Wild-caught salmon has a lower fat content than farm-raised salmon, and it's also more flavorful.
Cook the salmon properly. Salmon is a delicate fish, so it's important not to overcook it. The best way to cook salmon is to bake it in the oven at a high temperature for a short amount of time. This will help to keep the salmon moist and flavorful.
Make sure the rice is cooked properly. The rice should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. If the rice is overcooked, it will be mushy and unappetizing.
Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavors. The citrus dressing is a great way to add some brightness and flavor to the dish, but you can also try other dressings, such as a honey-mustard dressing or a balsamic vinaigrette.
Garnish the dish with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley, can help to add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.

This salmon and citrus rice bowl is a healthy and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this salmon and citrus rice bowl a try!
