# Steps to Follow:

01 - Cut the salmon into small, roughly 1-inch cubes. You may leave them as whole filets if preferred.
02 - Whisk together all marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the salmon and mix well to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
03 - Blend all vinaigrette ingredients in a blender until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Store in a jar and refrigerate.
04 - Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Discard the marinade and cook salmon cubes for 3-4 minutes on each side until crispy and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
05 - Assemble the bowls with a base of rice. Add the black beans, corn, cooked salmon, pico de gallo, sliced avocado, and drizzle with vinaigrette. Optionally, include some chopped romaine lettuce for extra vegetables.

# Extra Tips:

01 - You can cube the salmon with the skin on and easily remove it by pouring boiling water over the skin, then peeling it back before slicing.
