I don't know about you, but I've been absolutely obsessed with poké bowls
since I went to Hawaii a couple of years ago. Like, I could eat poké bowls every day.
My kids, on the other hand, have a different idea about the whole raw fish thing. You know
they are kids and they simply want crispy breaded flaky white fish. I don't
blame them. To tell you the truth, these poké bowls come together in a matter of
minutes, and thanks to Gorton's breaded fish fillets, our partners for today's
video, and thanks to these easy poké bowls, my kids are learning to add more foods
to the repertoire. So let me show you how I made these beautiful colorful
poké bowls. So the first thing we're going to do, is place the fish fillets on a
baking sheet and bake for 17 to 19 minutes, making sure to flip
the fish half way through. While those cook I'm going to get the other
ingredients ready. And you know what's great about this recipe, you can prep
everything and I mean everything ahead of time, and while the fish cooks all you
have to do is take it out and set the table. All right let's get back to
showing you how these are made, since I only have a couple of minutes while the fish cooks.
I have some fresh pineapple chunks here that I want to chop really small.
Fresh pineapple brings a hint of sweetness to this recipe you're going to love.
After that I'm going to peel and dice a cucumber. If your family doesn't
mind that tougher skin simply slice it with a knife or a mandolin, or you could
do half and half. I saved myself some time and bought matchstick carrots. If
you have regular large carrots at home I would suggest just grating them. The
finer texture goes really well in a poké bowl. I also have some edamame that's
been thawed out already and a large bag of kale. And this kale is
a bit too coarse for two out of my three kids that eat it, so I'm going to chop it
a bit finer. You could also substitute the kale with mixed greens or even
spinach. You might have noticed that the key here is to pair a variety of fresh
colorful foods with our main source of protein
Gorton's breaded fish. Together I see it as a
combination of something my kids love and a variety of foods that add
nutrition. I have my rice in the rice cooker but you could also prep it ahead
of time. This is a perfect meal for a busy weeknight where you want to have
everything ready, in the fridge, and only minimal cooking is required. I like to add
some fresh cilantro over these poké bowls, so I'm going to chop some of that too!
One last thing I feel complete this poké bowl is the sauce. I like to give my
family a few sauce options, so here I have the traditional poké sauce that is
used to marinate the fish except I added some olive oil to turn it into a
dressing, since our fish is already cooked. It has soy sauce, garlic, rice
vinegar, sesame oil, and olive oil. I'll make sure to link the recipe right below
this video so you can get the exact measurements for this recipe and print
it out. I also like to top my poké bowl with a spicy sriracha mayo that comes
together by mixing some sriracha, mayonnaise, and a bit of water to thin it
out. And another kid-friendly option is teriyaki sauce by the way. So, if you have
that in the fridge, you can pull it out for this meal. Okay guys the breaded fish
is golden brown and crispy so it's time to move it from the oven and let it cool
slightly. While they bring everything to the table suddenly a poké bowl is ready
simple just layer on some rice, some of the kale, red cabbage, and remaining
toppings you want to use. I'm going to add a drizzle of our dressing and then place
the fish on top. To finish it off, I'm going to add a bit more cilantro and
drizzle the spicy sriracha mayo. What do you think? Would your family eat these
poké bowls? Leave me a comment below and let me know now. Remember that the recipe
