spicy thai mango baked salmon with roasted veggies
Ingredients
- [Preheat oven to 400
- 1 to 1.25 lbs. salmon, skin on underside
- 3 Tbl. mayonnaise
- ¼ cup Greek plain yogurt
- 3 Tbl. Spicy Thai Mango Sauce
- 1 Tbl. garlic paste
- ½ tsp. sea salt
- ½ tsp. coarse ground pepper
- ½ cup sliced almonds, crushed more finely
- VEGETABLES
- 1-2 zucchini, sliced lengthwise in halves
- 1-2 squash, sliced lengthwise in halves
- 1 large beet, peeled and in sliced rounds (about ¼" to ½" each)
- 8-10 baby potatoes, sliced lengthwise in halves
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp. sea salt
- 1 tsp. coarse ground pepper
Instructions
- SALMON: Take a large piece of doubled foil and make a 'container' with it that is about the size of your piece of salmon.
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine the mayo, yogurt, mango sauce, garlic paste, salt and pepper. Blend well.
- Score the salmon with a sharp knife, about one-fourth inch into the flesh side. Make a criss cross pattern. This will allow some of the topping mixture to ooze in.
- Coat the flesh slide with the mayo/yogurt mixture working gently into the crevices made with the scoring.
- If there's any extra coating put it on the bottom of the tin foil 'container'. Put the salmon in the foil container. Top with the almonds.
- VEGETABLES: Place the sliced veggies in a large mixing bowl. Toss and coat with the olive oil, salt and pepper. Lay alongside the foil container with the salmon.
- Bake in a preheated 400 oven 20 minutes. Remove and let the salmon and veggies rest. Ready to eat!
Notes
Choose your favorite vegetables. You simply want to ensure that all will cook withing the time the salmon cooks. Or remove salmon and cook veggies longer if not done.
If you're using potatoes, slice into smaller pieces or precook somewhat in the microwave.
Use veggies that will retain their shape during this cooking like zucchini, broccoli flowerettes, asparagus (thicker variety), baby potatoes (sliced in halves), cubed onions (leave root attached and the layers of the onion cubes won't fall apart), medium diced turnips/beets (beets will fade on the other veggies).
