Method

1

Pat salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Coat evenly with jerk marinade and let sit 15 minutes at room temperature, or up to 24 hours refrigerated.

2

Dice bell pepper and red onion. Chop cilantro. Juice lime.

3

Cook rice according to package directions until tender. Fluff with a fork.

4

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Place salmon skin-side down (if skin-on) and sear 5–6 minutes until skin crisps. Flip and cook 4–5 minutes more until opaque throughout. Rest 2 minutes.

5

In the same pan, cook diced bell pepper and red onion over medium-high heat 3–4 minutes, stirring, until lightly softened and charred at edges.

6

Divide cooked rice between plates. Top with salmon fillet, charred vegetables, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
