# Steps:

01 - Cut the salmon into 1-inch cubes or leave as fillets if preferred.
02 - Whisk olive oil, chicken broth, lime juice, lime zest, garlic, salt, cumin, paprika, chili powder, oregano, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl.
03 - Add salmon to the marinade and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
04 - In a blender, combine cilantro, shallot, garlic, olive oil, lime juice, water, red pepper flakes, and salt. Blend until smooth. Taste and adjust as needed. Chill the vinaigrette in the fridge.
05 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Remove salmon from marinade and cook 3-4 minutes per side or until crispy and the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
06 - Layer cilantro lime rice as the base, then add black beans, corn, cooked salmon, pico de gallo, avocado, and drizzle with the cilantro vinaigrette. Add chopped romaine lettuce for extra vegetables if desired.

# Notes:

01 - To easily remove salmon skin, pour boiling water over the skin and peel it off before slicing into cubes.
