- Salmon (I bought it frozen. One bag had 4 pieces)
- Veggies: Yellow and green zucchini (one each), asparagus cut in small pieces and two tomatoes and/or any veggies you may have at home.
- One large sweet potato
- Spices: Salt, pepper, cumin, garlic
- Balsamic Vinaigrette
- Soy sauce (1 table spoon)
- Parsley (half a bunch, chopped)
Marinate the salmon with salt, pepper, garlic, cumin, a few drops of soy sauce and parsley. Put it in the oven at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Make sure you flip it at 15 minutes so that both sides cook nicely.
Cooking the sweet potato in the microwave: Go ahead and wash the sweet potato, put it in grocery plastic bag, tie a knot, make some holes to the bag with a fork and put it in the microwave for 8 minutes. If its not fully cooked, put it back for one or two more minutes. I have to say, I only used sweet potato because I had it in my pantry and it was going to go bad if I didnt use it ASAP. But...it turned out to be a nice addition since the sweet balanced out perfectly with the balsamic taste of the veggies.
To cook the veggies just add all the chopped veggies in a deep pan, add about half a cup of Balsamic Vinaigrette dressing (the same one you use for your salad) and cook it in low heat so that the veggies get steamed. This should take about 10 to 15 minutes depending on how cooked you like your veggies.
...and you are done!! my husband loved this meal...and I loved it even more since it only took 30 minutes for it to be ready :)
