INGREDIENTS

For the Baked Salmon:
2 (5 oz) salmon fillets
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp lemon juice
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp onion powder
½ tsp dried dill
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
Parsley and Dill Sprigs (for garnish)

For the Wild Rice:
½ cup wild rice
1 cup water or low-sodium vegetable broth
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp olive oil

For the Steamed Green Beans:
1 ½ cups fresh green beans, trimmed
½ tsp olive oil
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
½ tsp lemon zest (optional for extra flavor)

INSTRUCTIONS

Cook the Wild Rice: In a small pot, bring 1 cup of water or vegetable broth to a boil. Add wild rice and a pinch of salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff with a fork, drizzle with olive oil, and season with black pepper. Set aside.

Bake the Salmon: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place salmon fillets on the sheet and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice. In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, onion powder, dried dill, salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle the seasoning mix evenly over the salmon. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is flaky and cooked through. Garnish with fresh parsley and set aside.

Steam the Green Beans: Bring a pot of water to a boil and place a steamer basket over it. Add green beans to the basket and cover. Steam for 5-7 minutes, until tender but still crisp. Remove from heat and toss with olive oil, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest.

Divide the wild rice between two plates. Top with baked salmon and serve with a side of steamed green beans.
