Sweet and Tangy Broiled Salmon with Roasted Veggies and Red Rice
This is a delicious, easy, colorful meal that can be repurposed for lunch the next day!
Ingredients
For the Salmon:
1 filet per serving
1 tbsp ghee
1 tbsp coconut sugar
2 tbsp Bragg’s coconut aminos
2 tbsp dijon mustard
1 tbsp olive oil
For the veggies and Rice:
1 cup of red or forbidden rice
1 sweet potato, sliced
1 head of purple cauliflower, cut into florets
2 cups brussels sprouts
1 small head of broccoli
Salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder
Directions:
For the salmon, mix together all of the ingredients in a bowl and generously glaze the top of each salmon filet
Place the salmon on a sheet pan with parchment paper and broil for 7 minutes
When the salmon is out, heat the oven to 400 degrees.
Add 1 cup of rice to 2 cups of boiling vegetable broth (you can also use water), cover and let cook for about 18 minutes or until water is absorbed and rice is soft. Mix 1 tbsp olive oil and a dash of salt
Place all of the veggies on a sheet with parchment paper and roast for 25-30 minutes or until crispy
Serve the salmon over the rice and vegetables and enjoy! The orange drizzle in the photo is actually leftover butternut squash curry soup, it added a great flavor!
I used the rice and vegetables the next day for lunch with a poached egg and a drizzle of tahini!
