Spring Lemon-Herb Salmon Bowls
Serves 2 to 3
For the salmon:
1-1.5 lbs (450–680 g) salmon, cut into 2 or 3 portions
1 Tbsp olive oil
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1–2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried dill OR 1 Tbsp fresh dill
Salt and pepper to taste
For the bowls:
2–3 cups (300-450 g) cooked rice or quinoa
1 cup (120 g) cucumber, diced
1 cup (150 g) cherry tomatoes, halved
1 big handful of spinach or arugula
Optional add-ins: sliced avocado, feta cheese, chickpeas, fresh herbs
Heat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.
Mix the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, dill, salt, and pepper. Brush or spoon the mixture over the salmon. Bake the salmon for 12–15 minutes or until it flakes easily with a fork.
Assemble your bowls with your rice or quinoa, greens, tomatoes, cucumbers, and any extra toppings you enjoy.
Top with the warm salmon and drizzle any leftover lemon-herb mixture on top.
