Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp black pepper.
- Step 2: In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, 3 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp dill, and 1 minced garlic clove. Brush half the mixture over salmon fillets.
- Step 3: Place salmon in a baking dish and bake for 12-14 minutes until the edges are opaque and the salmon flakes easily with a fork.
- Step 4: While salmon cooks, combine 1 cup rice, 2 cups chicken broth, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18 minutes until liquid is absorbed.
- Step 5: Stir remaining 1 tbsp dill and 2 tbsp parsley into cooked rice. Top salmon with remaining lemon-herb glaze and serve immediately.
