Baked BBQ Salmon with Cajun-Spiced Broccoli, Bell Pepper & RiceBaked BBQ Salmon with Cajun-Spiced Broccoli, Bell Pepper & Rice — a 35-minute lunch recipe with 8 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

1 ½ (510 g) bags broccoli florets

1 ½ cups jasmine rice

3 red bell peppers

1.02 kg salmon fillet

barbecue sauce

Cajun seasoning

extra virgin olive oil

salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).

Using a strainer or colander, rinse the rice under cold, running water, then drain and transfer to a medium saucepan. Add water and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.

Once the liquid comes to a boil, stir the mixture, cover the saucepan, and reduce heat to low. Cook rice until liquid is fully absorbed, 15-18 minutes. Once done, remove rice from the heat and let it stand, still covered, for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, pat salmon dry with paper towels. Place on a baking sheet pan and spread barbecue sauce over top.

Wash, dry, trim, and seed bell peppers; halve crosswise, then slice into thin strips. Place bell pepper and broccoli on another baking sheet.

Drizzle veggies with oil, then sprinkle with Cajun seasoning and salt. Toss to coat and spread out in an even layer.

Place baking sheets in the oven (it doesn't have to be fully heated) and bake until veggies are fork-tender and salmon is cooked through, 12-15 minutes. Remove from oven.

To serve, divide rice, salmon, and veggies between plates. Enjoy!
