Ingredients

2 servings

1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb . salmon filet, cut into 2-3 pieces
1/2 cup packed fresh basil
1 small bunch of fresh chives
1 teaspoon dried oregano, optional
1 clove garlic
1/2 cup mayo (more as needed to keep it creamy)
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 -2 tablespoons lemon juice
small pinch of salt, to taste
1 1/2 cup halved cherry tomatoes
2 ear sweet corn, cut off the cob
1 -2 cups fresh spinach or spring greens
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons minced chives or parsley
salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste
2 cups cooked rice or grains for serving (I use precooked to make it easy)

Steps

Prep the tomato salad.
Blend the basil sauce ingredients until almost completely smooth, with just a few flecks remaining.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Mix the spices in a small bowl and stir in the olive oil. Coat the salmon with the spice paste.
Bake on a parchment-lined baking sheet for 9-12 minutes, or until 135 degrees in the thickest part. (It’s all personal preference, but this is the doneness that we like best – it’s a medium-well done salmon.)
Plate the salmon over the rice, serve with salad, and spoon the sauce over the top. Season with salt and pepp. Mwah!
