Why this works
Omega-3 fats from salmon plus polyphenol-rich roasted vegetables make this the anti-inflammatory template we come back to weekly.
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (5 oz each), skin on
- 1 lb carrots and parsnips, cut into batons
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 can (15 oz) lentils, drained and rinsed
- 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 3/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup chopped dill and parsley
- 1 lemon, half juiced and half in wedges
- Sea salt and black pepper
Method
- 1Heat the oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan.
- 2Toss carrots, parsnips, and onion with 2 tbsp olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper. Roast 18 minutes.
- 3Push the vegetables to the edges, scatter the lentils in the center, and nestle the salmon on top. Brush the fish with the remaining oil and season.
- 4Roast 10 to 12 minutes, until the salmon flakes at the thickest point.
- 5Stir the yogurt with the herbs, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.
- 6Spoon the herb yogurt over everything and serve with lemon wedges.
Yvette's tip
Cook a second tray of vegetables while the oven is hot, that is tomorrow's lunch bowl already done.
