Fried Salmon with Broccoli and Cheese
Carbs per serving 6g
INGREDIENTS
- 450 g broccoli
- 75 g butter
- salt and pepper
- 150 g grated cheddar cheese
- 650 g salmon
- 1 lime (optional)
Serves 4
METHOD:
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
-
Cut the broccoli into smaller florets and let simmer in lightly salted water for a couple of minutes. Make sure the broccoli maintains its chewy texture and delicate color.
-
Drain the broccoli and discard the boiling water. Set aside, uncovered, for a minute or two to allow the steam to evaporate.
-
Place the drained broccoli in a well-greased baking dish. Add butter and pepper to taste.
-
Sprinkle cheese on top of the broccoli and bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes or until the cheese turns a golden color.
-
In the meantime, season the salmon with salt and pepper and fry in plenty of butter, a few minutes on each side. The lime can be fried in the same pan or be served raw. This step can also be made on an outdoor grill.
