Oven-Baked Salmon and Sunshine Rice

Here's an oven-baked dish that's a nice solution for weeknights as it cooks hands free and all in one pot. Serve with cooked greens or a big salad alongside and dinner is done. If you're not crazy about curry powder, swap in dried dill instead, though your rice won't be quite as "sunny."

Method

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. 


Add rice and toast, stirring often, until fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. 


Stir in cauliflower, 1 1/2 cups water, onion, curry powder, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, tomatoes with their liquid and juice from 1 lemon half. 


Cover tightly with foil and the Dutch oven lid and bake until rice is almost tender, 1 to 1 1/4 hours.


Season salmon on all sides with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. 


Arrange salmon in a single layer on top of rice and continue to bake, uncovered, until salmon is just cooked through, about 10 minutes more; garnish with parsley. 


Cut remaining lemon half into wedges and serve alongside to squeeze over the top.
