Garlic Lemon Salmon with Peppers and Brown Rice

Apr 9, 2013 · 2 Comments

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This healthy, gluten-free dinner was so delicious, colorful and easy to make! On my latest trip to Costco, I purchased a huge piece of Salmon which I cut into four 2-fillet size servings each (I know, this thing was huge!) and then put into the freezer-so expect more Salmon recipes soon.

Prep Time: 5 minutes minutes
Cook Time: 50 minutes minutes
Total Time: 55 minutes minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets mine were about 6oz each
  • 5 garlic cloves crushed
  • 2 Tbs Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 Tbs butter
  • 1/2 of a lemon
  • 3 bell peppers cut into stripes (I had one yellow, orange and red, but green would be great too)
  • 1 cup uncooked brown rice
  • For seasoning the salmon & bell peppers: garlic salt salt and pepper
  • For the peppers -sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Prepare the brown rice according to directions (the organic one I used takes 50 min, so I start on that first).
  • In a pan heat 1.5 Tbs of the EVOO and add to it 3 of the crushed garlic cloves. Add the salmon fillets, season each side with garlic salt, salt and pepper and cook each side for about 6-8 minutes. When you are almost done cooking the salmon, add 1 Tbs butter and squeeze juice of half a lemon and then turn off the heat and let butter melt.
  • In another pan, add remaining EVOO and 2 crushed garlic cloves, add pepper strips, season them, I added a sprinkling of crushed red pepper flakes to the bell peppers.
  • To assemble divide rice and peppers among 4 bowls, then add the salmon and a dribbles of the butter lemon sauce to each bowl and enjoy!

Here are my November 5 star books: Mrs Nash’s A Here are my November 5 star books:
Mrs Nash’s Ashes by @sarahadlerwrites  I did not want this lovely book to end! The characters had such great chemistry and it was overall such a good romance.”A starry-eyed romantic, a cynical writer, and (the ashes of) an elderly woman take the road trip of a lifetime that just might upend everything they believe about true love.”
Will They Or Won’t They by @avawilderwrites Such a cute story and I loved the ending, was not expecting it to end the way it did with the little twist. “Onscreen, they’re in love. Offscreen, they can’t stand each other. From the author of How to Fake It in Hollywood comes “a sexy lovers-to-enemies-to-lovers romance that smolders then bursts into flames”
Flying Solo @lindaholmes97  @justjuliawhelan narrates - she’s my fave narrator. This was such a fun audiobook, there were parts that had me loling and it was a unique love story, I thoroughly enjoyed it. “A woman returns to her small Maine hometown, uncovering family secrets that take her on a journey of self-discovery and new love, in this warm and charming novel from the NYT bestselling author of Evvie Drake Starts Over.”
The Lost Bookshop @evie.gaughan This was such a lovely cozy read with a touch of whimsey, I really loved the story. “The Keeper of Stories meets The Lost Apothecary in this evocative and charming novel full of mystery and secrets. ‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’ On a quiet street in Dublin, a lost bookshop is waiting to be found…”
