Here's a simple and healthy recipe for Salmon with Broccoli and Brown Rice:
Ingredients:
For the Salmon:
- 2 salmon fillets
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Broccoli:
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the Brown Rice:
- 1 cup brown rice
- 2 cups water
- A pinch of salt
Instructions:
1. Cook the Brown Rice:
- Rinse the brown rice thoroughly in a fine-mesh strainer.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, water, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.
- Once done, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for about 5 minutes before fluffing the rice with a fork.
2. Prepare the Broccoli:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a mixing bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the seasoned broccoli out in a single layer on a baking sheet.
- Roast the broccoli in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until it's tender and slightly crispy at the edges.
3. Cook the Salmon:
- While the broccoli is roasting, prepare the salmon. In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- Place the salmon fillets on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a greased oven-safe dish.
- Brush the salmon fillets with the olive oil mixture.
- Once the broccoli is done, remove it from the oven and set aside. Turn the oven to broil.
- Place the salmon under the broiler for about 5-7 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork and has a nicely browned top.
4. Serve:
- To serve, divide the cooked brown rice, roasted broccoli, and salmon fillets among plates.
- You can garnish with lemon wedges and fresh herbs if desired.
