Baked Salmon

Recipe #302290 | 55 min | 25 min prep | SERVES 2 -3 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Shanlynn

This is a very healthy recipe I concocted several years ago when I was told to start eating only fish and chicken, and was told to cut back on pretty much everything I loved, so it was done out of necessity. My husband came home with a giant salmon, and this is what we did with it. It turned out great, and we love it now! I posted this on another site, and it's gotten great reviews. A few people thought it needed more seasonings, but the seasonings everyone loves are what I love and had to cut out of my diet...as in salt! You can substitute the brown rice for white rice, cous cous, or anything you like. You can also use chicken broth for the rice, and white wine is very good in the bottom of the pan if you're not watching what you eat. To make it a one dish meal, you can add fresh asparagus during the last 5 to 10 minutes of cooking time, and cover with foil. This is great!
