Total Time 30 minutes
Servings 1

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup brown rice
  • 1 salmon filet
  • ½ bunch of Swiss chard
  • 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • 1 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp lime juice
  • ¼ tsp red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Prepare the rice according to directions.
  2. While the rice is cooking, chop the Swiss chard. Warm a pan to medium heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add the Swiss chard and sauté 10-15 minutes.
  3. Prepare the glaze for the salmon by whisking together the garlic, soy sauce, maple syrup, lime juice, and red pepper flakes.
  4. Heat another pan to medium or medium-low heat and add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Coat the salmon with the sauce on one side and place that side down in the pan. Cook for 3-5 minutes while coating the other side of the salmon with the sauce. Flip and cook an additional 3-5 minutes. Drizzle sauce on the salmon while it cooks.
  5. In a bowl, combine the rice, Swiss chard, and salmon. If you have any remaining sauce, you can sprinkle more on top. Enjoy!
