Salmon Coconut Milk Lime Broccoli Spice Easy Dinner

Spiced Salmon with Coconut-Lime Glaze and Roasted Broccoli

A vibrant and flavorful dish featuring pan-seared salmon drizzled with a creamy coconut-lime glaze, served alongside roasted broccoli florets.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound salmon fillet, skin on or off
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 (13.5 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast for 15-20 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.

  2. While the broccoli roasts, pat the salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season both sides with cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper. Heat remaining olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.

  3. Sear salmon for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through.

  4. In a small bowl, whisk together coconut milk, lime juice, and cilantro. Pour the mixture over the seared salmon in the skillet.

  5. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving alongside roasted broccoli.
