INGREDIENTS
5 ounces Salmon Fillet
1.5 cups Cauliflower
1 clove Garlic
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Steam the cauliflower until tender, about 8-10 minutes, then drain and transfer to a bowl.
In a small pan, warm the olive oil over medium heat, and lightly sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the garlic (with its oil) to the cauliflower.
Mash the steamed cauliflower and garlic together using a potato masher or immersion blender. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.
In a shallow dish, combine whole wheat breadcrumbs, chopped fresh parsley, fresh dill, salt, and pepper.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel. Lightly brush the top side with a small amount of olive oil, then press the herb and breadcrumb mixture onto the flesh to form a crust.
Place the salmon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
Plate the garlic mashed cauliflower and top with the herb-crusted salmon. Serve warm.
