Try Chef Matty Matheson’s “Post-Workout Meal of Champions”

Canadian chef and FX’s “The Bear” star Matty Matheson is serving drool-worthy recipes in his YouTube series Cookin’ Somethin’. On July 21, 2024, Matheson traded his usual (very) high-calorie, fast-food-inspired creations for his favorite healthy salmon and rice power bowl. He incorporates this meal three times per week post-workout. 

The 41-year-old restaurateur boasted a recent 40-pound weight loss by eating healthier meals like the one he shared and training. Check out the detailed salmon bowl recipe below.

Note: Matheson did not provide the calories or macros for the salmon bowl. 

Healthy Salmon Bowl Recipe

Matheson prepares a marinade sauce by mixing the following ingredients in a large bowl. 

  • 4 scallions, chopped 
  • 1-inch knob of ginger, peeled and grated 
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled and grated 
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin 
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce 
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil 
  • 2 tablespoons orange juice 
  • ¼ cup chili crisp 
  • ½ cup soy sauce 
  • 1 lime, juiced 
  • ¼ cup cilantro, chopped 
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar 

Cut the salmon into smaller pieces or cubes. Place them in the bowl of marinade and then into a refrigerator for a few hours or overnight to add flavor. Spoon the sauce over the fish-skin-side-up on a paper-lined baking tray for immediate cooking. 

Oven-broil the salmon for three to five minutes until the skin is crisp and brown. Cook the meat until medium to medium rare. Remove the salmon from the oven and set aside while preparing the rice.

Rice Recipe 

Here’s what’s needed for the rice in the salmon power bowl:

  • Olive oil
  • 1 ½ cups day-old [already cooked] Jasmine Rice
  • 3 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 4 scallions, thinly sliced
  • 1 inch ginger, chopped
  • Kosher salt

Heat a skillet on medium. Add oil, garlic, scallions, and ginger. Stir to combine the ingredients for two to three minutes or until soft. Add a handful-and-a-half of day-old rice into the pan. Mix the ingredients. 

Matheson flattens the rice in the pan, seasons it with salt, and lets it get lightly crisp on one side. He toasts sesame seeds in a separate pan to be used as topping later.

Salad

Construct the greens element of the dish using the following plant-based foods:

  • Radish, roll cut
  • Cucumber, roll cut
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro 
  • ½ lime juiced 
  • Salt and pepper 
  • olive oil 

Add the ingredients to a bowl and splash with a little olive oil. 

Crafting The Salmon Bowl

For serving, Matheson spoons the desired amount of rice into a bowl and tops it with salmon cubes, salad, daikon, and kimchi. He drizzles the sauce over the top and sprinkles sesame seeds to his liking.

I eat this probably three times a week. This meal is…a standard of eating better, taking care of myself.
