Prepare the brown rice by rinsing it under cold water, combining it with water and salt, bringing to a boil, then simmering for 45 minutes until tender.
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place the salmon fillet on it, drizzle with olive oil, and season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Arrange broccoli around the salmon, drizzle with remaining olive oil, and season.
Bake the salmon and broccoli for 12-15 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Assemble the bowls by dividing the cooked brown rice among four bowls, placing a portion of baked salmon on top, and adding roasted broccoli.
Top each bowl with shredded carrots, sliced green onions, drizzle with soy sauce, and sprinkle sesame seeds.
