Spiced Salmon with Roasted Coconut-Lime Vegetables

A vibrant and flavorful dish featuring pan-seared salmon with a sweet and spicy coconut-lime glaze, accompanied by roasted vegetables.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb salmon fillet, skin on
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • ¼ tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup sliced zucchini
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • ½ cup chopped onion

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together coconut milk, lime juice, ginger, cumin, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place salmon fillet in an oven-safe skillet. Pour the coconut-lime mixture over the salmon.
  4. Toss broccoli, zucchini, bell pepper, and onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
  5. Roast vegetables for 15 minutes. Then, transfer the skillet with salmon to the oven and cook alongside the vegetables for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Serve salmon with roasted vegetables.

Tips:

  • You can substitute any firm white fish for the salmon.
  • Add other vegetables like carrots, sweet potatoes, or green beans to the roasting pan.
  • Garnish with fresh cilantro or chopped nuts for added flavor and texture.
