Salmon
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 cup brown rice
2-1/2 cups water
1 lb. salmon fillet
1/4 cup orange juice
1 teaspoon dried dill weed
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1 teaspoon lemon pepper
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a saucepan bring 2-1/2 cups of water to a boil. Add rice
and stir. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.
- In a large pan, add enough water to just cover the bottom of
the pan. Lay the salmon fillet in the pan, pink side up. Place
cooked rice around the outside of the fish. Sprinkle the orange
juice over the fish and rice. In a small bowl, combine the dill
weed, rosemary, basil, mustard and lemon pepper and sprinkle over
the fish and rice. Cover with aluminum foil.
- Bake in a preheated oven for 30 to 40 minutes or until the
salmon is tender and flaky.
Salmon is a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, and has an
anti-inflammatory effect. |
