Oven Roasted Salmon

Parmesan Risotto

Asparagus

Basil Pesto

Method

Oven Roasted Salmon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Salmon

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Season the Salmon

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and chopped dill. Rub this mixture over the salmon fillets.

  3. 3

    Roast the Salmon

    Place the seasoned salmon fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Parmesan Risotto

  1. 4

    Prepare the Broth

    In a saucepan, heat the chicken broth over low heat. Keep it warm but do not boil.

  2. 5

    Sauté Onions

    In a large pot, melt butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 6

    Cook the Rice

    Add the arborio rice to the onions and stir for 1-2 minutes until the rice is well-coated with the butter.

  4. 7

    Deglaze with Wine

    Pour in the dry white wine and stir until it's mostly absorbed.

  5. 8

    Add Broth Gradually

    Begin adding the warm chicken broth, one ladle at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until the broth is mostly absorbed before adding the next ladle. This process should take about 18-20 minutes.

  6. 9

    Finish the Risotto

    Once the rice is creamy and al dente, stir in the grated parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Remove from heat and let it sit for a minute.

Asparagus

  1. 10

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Trim the tough ends off the asparagus. Rinse and pat dry.

  2. 11

    Season and Roast

    Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast in the oven (alongside the salmon) for about 10-12 minutes until tender.

Basil Pesto

  1. 12

    Blend the Ingredients

    In a food processor, combine fresh basil leaves, pine nuts, minced garlic, and grated parmesan cheese. Blend until smooth.

  2. 13

    Add Olive Oil

    With the processor running, gradually add olive oil until the pesto reaches your desired consistency. Season with salt to taste.
