Instructions
- Step 1: Pat 6 oz salmon fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix 1 tbsp minced ginger, 1/2 tsp turmeric powder, 1 tbsp olive oil, and 1 tsp lemon zest to form a paste.
- Step 2: Rub the paste evenly over both sides of the salmon fillets. Place salmon skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Step 3: Roast at 400°F (200°C) for 12 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Meanwhile, steam 2 cups broccoli florets for 5 minutes until vibrant green and tender-crisp.
- Step 4: Plate the salmon over the steamed broccoli, drizzling any pan juices from the baking sheet over the dish for maximum flavor absorption.
