Ingredients:
For the salmon:
- 5 oz. wild-caught salmon
- 1/2 tsp tandoori spice blend (if unavailable, substitute with garam masala or curry powder)
- 1 tbsp red palm oil
For the swiss chard:
- 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1/2 tsp black mustard seed
- 1/4 tsp fresh grated ginger
- 1/4 tsp cumin seed
- 1/4 tsp turmeric
- 1 1/2 cups chopped Swiss chard
- 1/4 cup water
- Pinch sea salt
- 1 tsp cilantro
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Rest salmon on a plate and pat dry with paper towels.
- In a small bowl, mix the red palm oil and tandoori spice together. Brush generously over the salmon and marinate for 1 hour.
- Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 140 degrees F. While the salmon is cooking, prepare the Swiss chard.
- Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium and add everything except the Swiss chard to the pan. Toast spices for 2-3 minutes and then add Swiss chard and water.
