Ingredients
  • 1 cup long-grain brown rice
  • 2 cup small cauliflower florets
  • 1 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 2 teaspoon curry powder
  • one 14 1/2-ounce can no-salt-added, fire-roasted diced tomatoes, with their liquid
  • 1 lemon, halved
  • 12 ounce boneless, skinless wild coho salmon fillet, cut into large chunks
  • 2 tablespoon chopped parsley or cilantro, for garnish
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Heat a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the rice and cook, stirring often, until toasted and fragrant, 3-4 minutes. Stir in the cauliflower, water, onion, curry powder, tomatoes, and juice of ½ lemon.
  3. Cover tightly with foil and the Dutch oven lid and bake until the rice is almost tender, 1-1 ¼ hours. Uncover, arrange the salmon on top of the rice and continue to bake, uncovered, until salmon is just cooked through, about 10 more minutes.
  4. Garnish with the parsley and cut the remaining lemon half into wedges; serve on the side to squeeze over the top.
