Delicious baked salmon with savory brown sugar and cilantro glaze, served with fragrant mango and cilantro rice. Light and flavorful main dish.
Ingredients:
  • 2 tablespoons cracked coriander seed
  • 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
  • 1 (1 pound) fillet fresh salmon
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice
  • 1 mango, peeled, pitted and diced
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh lemon peel
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) and lightly grease a shallow 9x13 baking dish.
  • Mix the coriander seed, brown sugar, and lemon-pepper seasoning in a small bowl until fully combined.
  • Lay the salmon fillet skin side down in the baking dish. Brush the fillet with butter, then evenly coat with the coriander spice mixture, pressing gently to adhere.
  • Mix the mango, cilantro, and lemon peel into the fluffy rice. Surround the fish in the baking dish with this aromatic rice blend.
  • Bake the fish in a preheated oven until it easily flakes with a fork, about 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2 inch thickness. Cut the fish into 4 pieces and serve over rice on 4 plates.
