the majority of the fat in this dish comes from the olive oil, which is a monounsaturated fat (the best and healthiest kind!)
Ingredients:
2 salmon filets
1 cup instant brown rice
1 cup chicken broth (lower sodium)
1 cup broccoli, 1 cup carrots, 1/3 cup red onion, 2 clementines, 2 tbsp olive oil
Glaze: 2 tbs reduced sodium soy sauce, 3 tbs crushed pineapple, juice from 1 squeezed clementine and 1/2 lime, onion, garlic, and ginger powder.
Preparation
Preheat oven broiler to 500 degrees.
Prepare glaze and brush 1/3 of glaze on the salmon.
Chop carrots and broccoli, slice onion, peel and slice clementine.
Bring chicken broth to a boil in a small pot.
In a separate saucepan, heat the olive oil on medium heat.
Once the broth has boiled, it is time to put the glazed salmon into the oven on the top rack.
Put rice into the broth, stir, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for five minutes.
Saute the onions, carrots, and broccoli in the pan with the olive oil for five minutes.
After the rice has cooked for five minutes, combine with vegetables in the saucepan, add remaining glaze and the clementine slices.
You will need to flip the salmon at this time.
Cook the stir-fry mixture for another 5 minutes covered on medium heat stirring occasionally.
Allow salmon to cook for 10 minutes per each inch of thickness flipping halfway.
Plate your stir-fry with salmon on top and enjoy!
Thanks for sharing this recipe and I want to cook this because this is my favorite. I'm sure that this will be perfect for my recipe for stir fry sauce. I will now find those ingredients in the market.
