Our sides were fresh broccoli and garlic brown rice.
For the broccoli, all I did was trim it, wash it, and put it in a medium pot of water on the stove. Heat to a simmer on medium heat for about 10 minutes, and then, turn off the heat. The broccoli can set until you are ready to serve it.
The rice was instant brown rice. I put a cup of chicken stock, a Tbsp of garlic powder, 1 tsp olive oil and a sprinkling of parsley in a small pot and brought it to a boil. Add 1 cup of rice and turned down the heat to simmer with a lid on the pot. Cooked for about 10 minutes - until liquid is gone - stirring occasionally.
I will definitely make this salmon again. We both cleaned our plates!
This is one of our favorite salmon recipes. I normally make this on the fly in a saute pan instead of the oven and I rarely add the almonds and tomatoes. It is totally delish and as unusual as it sounds totally wonderful.
