Cumin-Roasted Salmon with Cilantro Sauce and Roasted Broccoli
Total time: 30
Servings: 2
Ingredients
Sauce
½ cup cilantro leaves and stems, chopped
1 stalk green onions chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
½ clove garlic
½ tablespoon lime juice (this is typically juice from 1/4 of a lime)
2 tablespoon olive oil
Salmon
1 tablespoon cumin
½ teaspoon paprika (optional- you can use smoked paprika instead)
2 tablespoon olive oil
12 ounces salmon filet
Broccoli
1 head broccoli cut into large florets.
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 450
Make the sauce. Combine cilantro, chives, garlic, lime juice, and olive oil in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. (Alternatively, you can add all the ingredients to a food processor and pulse, which is what I personally prefer to do)
Combine the cumin, paprika, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper
Spray a foil-lined sheet with cooking spray. Place broccoli florets onto sheet, coat with cooking spray, and season with salt and pepper. (This will roast for a total of 20 minutes)
While the broccoli roasts, place the Salmon in a foil-lined shallow baking dish. Drizzle the salmon with the spiced oil mixture.
After the broccoli has roasted 5 minutes, toss the broccoli and place back into oven.
Place the salmon in the oven until just cooked through, about 12-15 minutes.
