RECIPE: CHILLI SOY SALMON

Sorry there are no step by step images for this recipe.  I prepared this meal with no intention of blogging it, but it was SO delicious I wanted to share it!  I'll start with the easy stuff first.  For the rice you see here, I used brown rice (from the box) and heated it in the microwave.  The salad is just chopped tomato, onion, and avocado with a little spritz of fresh lemon juice, salt and pepper. 

Now for the best part!....I bought a pound of fresh salmon from the seafood deli at my local grocery store.  I used a little olive oil on it, and then added the lite soy sauce.  Next, I sprinkled in a seasoning mix I whipped up which consisted of chilli powder, cayenne pepper, brown sugar, salt, and a little Mrs. Dash lemon pepper seasoning.  All seasonings were just measured to my own liking.  I baked it in the oven (set at 425 degrees) for about 30-35 minutes.  It came out nice and flaky and browned to perfection (so said the boyfriend, and he gives very honest critiques).  I was kind of surprised how it turned out, because I just kind of put it all together!  Let me know if you try it! :)

  4. Literally just made a freakishly similar meal last night - I stretched my little college budget so I could by myself a protein staple and went with salmon fillets, then the only thingI could think of was a little olive oil and soy sauce. The chili pepper is a nice touch :)

    1. No, no dressing. The avocado made it kind of creamy, so I ate it without any dressing. :)
