Notes

The dish is perfect for casual dinners or impressing guests. Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. To prevent the avocado from browning, toss it with lime juice right away. Consider variations such as using brown rice for a nuttier flavor or swapping salmon for cod or tilapia if desired!
