Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat the pan by heating a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes.
Prepare the salmon by patting it dry, seasoning both sides with salt and pepper, and drizzling olive oil on the skin side.
Sear the salmon by placing fillets skin-side down in the skillet and cooking for 4-5 minutes; flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
Prepare the rice by transferring pre-cooked rice to a small saucepan, adding soy sauce, and heating over medium heat for 3-4 minutes.
Assemble the bowl by scooping rice into a serving bowl, placing the crispy salmon on top, and surrounding it with veggies.
Serve by drizzling freshly squeezed lemon juice over the top and enjoy warm.
