Rosemary and Garlic Roasted Salmon

Today's delicious recipe comes from the blog In Sock Monkey Slippers and was found through Pinterest. I've been experimenting with salmon (and by "experimenting", I mean this is my second time cooking with salmon, haha! But I intend to "experiment" some more!) and this was one of my favorite things I have ever made. Packed with aromatic flavor, the salmon is a great source of omega-3, protein, amino acids, and vitamins B and D (2). 

What You'll Need:

2 garlic cloves

2-3 fresh 6″ rosemary sprigs (~ 1 tbsp chopped)

1 1/2 to 2 pounds salmon of choice

1/8 tsp sea salt

1/8 tsp black pepper

How To Prepare:

1. Preheat oven to 425°. 

2. Peel and chop garlic and rosemary. Set aside

3. Place salmon on a parchment lined baking sheet

4. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, rosemary, and garlic

5. Place in the oven and roast for 12-15 minutes (until the salmon is flaky)

before cooking

served with broccoli slaw (with paleo tahini sauce) and quinoa
