RICE STUFFED SALMON



Rice Stuffed Salmon image

My boyfriend likes to shout out random ingredients in the house and then expects an awesome dinner to follow... this is a creation I came up one night before he had a loooong run in the morning. It's very filling and minus the sodium in the rice, it's very healthy too!

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 salmon fillets with skin on, 1/3lb pieces
1 box generic, garlic/chicken flavored rice
1 lemon
1 tsp coarse salt(tastes best but other salt is fine)
1 tsp fresh ground pepper
1 tsp garlic powder or minced garlic

Steps:

  • 1. prepare the rice first- following the directions on the box. Usually it says to toast the rice in a couple tbsp of butter and then add 2 cups of water and simmer for about 20 minutes.
  • 2. While the rice is simmering, rinse the salmon and slice it lengthwse to create a picket for the rice. Make the cut close to the skin
  • 3. Stuff an overabundance of rice into the salmon and put skin side down on an oiled cookie sheet.
  • 4. Add the seasonings to the salmon- salt, pepper, garlic and put either on the bottom shelf on your oven while on broil, or on the top shelf in a 500 degree oven. I cook it for about 12-15 minutes until the top starts to brown and the skin is sizzling.
  • 5. After you take the fish out of the oven, squeeze 1/2 of the lemon on each piece and serve. You really don't need a side for theis either since you have the rice inside.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients you use, the better your dish will taste. Use fresh lemon juice, flavorful rice, and a variety of herbs and spices.
  • Don't overcook the salmon: Salmon is a delicate fish that can easily be overcooked. Cook it until it is just opaque in the center, about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • Let the salmon rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the fish, resulting in a more flavorful and moist dish.
  • Serve the salmon with a variety of sides: Lemon rice, roasted vegetables, and a green salad are all great options.
