What a great, tasty way to eat a healthy meal...salmon, kale and brown rice, and so easy too!

Ingredients

  • 4 tbl. lime juice, separated
  • 1 tsp. dried cilantro
  • 1 tbl. honey
  • 2 salmon fillets
  • About 1/2 lb. raw kale chopped
  • 3-4 scallions diced
  • 2 cu. cooked brown rice
  • 1/4 cu. fresh cilantro
  • kosher salt

Steps

  1. Whisk 2 tbl. lime juice with 1 tbl. honey, 1 tsp. dried cilantro and a pinch of salt to make the marinade.
  2. Pour the marinade over the salmon and let sit while preparing the rice.
  3. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray with non-stick cooking spray, add the kale, 1 tbl. lime juice and a pinch or two of salt. Cook for about a minute until wilting.
  4. Add scallions, brown rice, cilantro, remaining tbl. lime juice and another pinch of salt. Combine everything well allowing the flavors to merge.
  5. Heat a second skillet over medium-high heat and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Cook the salmon 2-3 minutes a side depending on thickness. After the first flip pour any leftover marinade over the fillets.
  6. Serve the salmon over the rice.
