Give your body what it wants! This improvised treat is so packed with nature's goodness that your body will be thanking you for days. Omega-3-packed salmon, folic acid-packed dandelion, and complex carb-packed wild rice. This is proof that a health kick is probably the best thing that can ever happen to you.
BRAD'S WILD SALMON WITH LEMON AND DILL WITH LOCAL DANDELION SALAD AND WILD RICE
(for 2) 2 wild salmon steaks; fresh lemon slices; fresh dill; 2-3 tbsp butter; splash olive oil; Kosher salt and fresh pepper
Bunch fresh local dandelion (in season now!!); extra virgin olive oil; Kosher salt and fresh pepper; big handful pine nuts
Wild rice with butter
Cook rice with about 2 tbsp of butter (normally takes about 45-50 minutes).
In a cast iron skillet heated to medium, melt butter and add olive oil. Preheat oven to 350. Season salmon steaks. When oil is smoking add salmon and sear for about 3 minutes, and then flip to sear the other side for 3 minutes and top with lemon slices and dill. Transfer to the oven and cook for about 10 minutes.
Toss salad ingredients together.
Let salmon sit for 4-5 minutes and then plate up.
