Herb-Crusted Salmon with Roasted Asparagus and Tomato Polenta recipe

Stashcook

This is a yummy fish dish with green veggies and a cheesy tomato base. We cook salmon with herbs and bake it with asparagus. We also make a soft polenta with tomato and cheese. It's a full meal with fish, veggies, and grains.

Ingredients

2 bunches asparagus, trimmed
1 lemon, zested and juiced
1 (24 oz) jar marinara sauce
2 (18 oz) tubes pre-cooked polenta
1 lb salmon fillet
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Method

1
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
2
Slice polenta into 1/2-inch thick rounds and arrange in a single layer in a large baking dish.
3
Pour marinara sauce over polenta, then scatter cherry tomatoes on top.
4
Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the sauce and tomatoes.
5
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, until the polenta is heated through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
6
While the polenta bakes, place the asparagus on one half of a baking sheet and the salmon fillet, skin-side down, on the other half.
7
Drizzle olive oil over the asparagus and salmon. Sprinkle lemon zest, basil, oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper evenly over both.
8
Roast in the oven alongside the polenta for 12-15 minutes, or until the asparagus is tender and the salmon is cooked through.
9
Remove both the polenta and the salmon and asparagus from the oven.
10
Squeeze lemon juice over the salmon and asparagus before serving.
11
To serve, place a portion of the herb-crusted salmon and roasted asparagus on each plate, along with a serving of the tomato polenta bake.
