Time 30m

Yield 2 cups, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup rice
1 cup water
1 cup fresh spinach or 1 cup swiss chard
4 ounces skinless salmon fillet
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until tender but not browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Add rice and stir until coated with oil. Stir in water and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until most of the water has been absorbed and rice is slightly tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Arrange spinach and salmon on top of rice, cover and continue to cook until spinach is wilted and salmon flakes easily when tested with a fork, about 10 minutes.
  • Transfer to a blender, add lemon juice and puree on high to desired consistency, adding more water if necessary.
