Ingredients

  • 130g Salmon Fillet
  • 120g brown rice
  • 80g green beans
  • 80g tenderstem broccoli
  • 2 tsp Cajun seasoning
  • 10g lemon juice
  • 50g greek yoghurt
  • chopped parsley

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the green beans and tenderstem, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Simmer the brown rice in plenty of water for 25 minutes until tender, then drain.

  3. 3

    Place the salmon on a lined tray, brush with some of the sauce and bake at 200°C for 12-14 minutes until it flakes easily.

  4. 4

    Coat the protein generously in Cajun seasoning. Mix the yoghurt with lemon juice and a pinch of the spice to make a cooling dip.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the green beans and tenderstem for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: brown rice first, then the veg and salmon, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the chopped parsley.
