For serving: Cooked rice or quinoa ahead, or super-fast using a pressure cooker
Instructions
Center the oven rack, and heat the oven to 425°F.
Scatter the vegetables on a large baking sheet, lightly drizzle them with olive oil, and then toss to coat. Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven, and cook for exactly 15 minutes.
While the veggies are cooking, quickly marinate the salmon: In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, cornstarch, vinegar, olive oil, and Sambal Oelek. Add the salmon fillets, turning them, if necessary, to coat both sides.
After the veggies have cooked for 15 minutes, arrange the salmon fillets on top of the veggies. Pour the remaining marinade over the veggies. Bake for exactly 10 minutes. Serve the fillets over hot, cooked rice or quinoa.
NOTE: For extra-easy health benefits, make your rice or quinoa like I do.
In the Instant Pot, which I use every day!
Not only does the Instant Pot make perfect rice and quinoa, this cooking method destroys the anti-nutrients like lectins.
Final thoughts
We all need to be reminded, over and over, of the health and even cost-saving benefits of preparing meals at home, from scratch.
Another point that can’t be overemphasized is the need for Omega3 fatty acids found in seafood such as salmon, sardines, wild shrimp, even anchovies.
Couple this with the great taste and health benefits of olive oil and you will be looking and feeling amazing!
Two brothers, Josh and Nate, fought hard to keep their 125-year-old and family owned olive orchard. After succeeding, they worked relentlessly to learn the business as well as being great stewards of Mother Earth by taking great care of their trees. This paid off, as the olives are giving back and each bottle the brothers produced has won an international award. The latest is a GOLD AWARD at the 2018 NYIOOC (largest olive oil competition in the world) for their Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
Both brothers are highly committed to bringing you the very best, all 100% natural olive oils from farm to your table - all made right here in the USA.
