Pro tips:

  • To make a pretty drizzle for the dressing, spoon it into a sandwich size zip-close bag and cut the tip off; then drizzle neatly.
  • For a quick lunch, prepare the ingredients ahead of time and assemble later as needed. The salmon can be cooked and kept in the refrigerator for three to five days in advance. When in doubt, use it by the fifth day.

Ingredients

  • black pepper, to taste
  • 1 pouch Uncle Ben's® Ready Rice Basmati Rice
  • ½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1-ounce cucumbers, julienned (small handful, about 20-22 matchsticks)
