I’m back with another salmon recipes because: I’ve got this Sheet Pan Salmon with Homemade Pesto here on KK too and it’s another healthy dinner that’s full of flavor, quick and easy! And if it’s the Mediterranean flavors you love, check out my Mediterranean Chicken & Rice too. If you’re in a dinner rut, this Mediterranean salmon will get you out of it FOR SURE. It’s honestly easy enough for a weeknight dinner but impressive to serve to dinner guests as well. We might be biased, but this is a keeper recipe!
Salmon: Choose your salmon fillets that are firm with brightly colored flesh. Frozen salmon works too, thaw completely before cooking. Seasonings: for seasoning the salmon you’ll need dried oregano, dried basil, dried parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper. For the Mediterranean salad: The couscous salad is SO refreshing and easy to make. I used my Mediterranean Orzo Salad recipe and used pearl couscous instead of the orzo. You can also use quinoa if you prefer a grain free option. Greek dressing: We’re obsessed with this dressing. You’ll add ~1 cup to the couscous salad, and reserve the remaining to spoon on top of the salmon after you pull them out of the oven. The dressing creates a tender, flakey salmon that you crave. YES to the PLEASE!
