Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Put the salmon on the sheet pan. Pour the Lemon Garlic Dressing over the salmon. Sprinkle a touch of oregano and dill over the fish. Put in the oven and cook for 12-17 minutes, until the salmon is flaky and cooked how you like it.
- While cooking, start the Leek Rice. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the Yellow onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally until slightly softened. Add the Chopped Leeks and minced garlic, stirring well. Add salt and pepper and continue to cook for 3-4 minutes. Add the rice and toast for 2 minutes.
- Add the water and more salt and stir together well. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat, simmering for about 16-19 minutes, stirring occasionally, and tasting the last few minutes to make sure it doesnβt get overcooked. If the rice gets too dry before cooking through, add more water. Reserve 2/5 of the rice for Harissa Chicken with Greek Leek Rice over Kale and Brussels.
- Once the rice is cooked, remove from the heat, stir in the lemon zest and juice and dill.
- Serve the salmon over leek rice and garnish with Parsley and lemon slices.
