A healthy and easy recipe for a Tzatziki Salmon Bowl featuring seasoned and pan-fried salmon, a fresh tzatziki salad, and jasmine rice. Perfect for a quick and nutritious dinner.
Season the salmon with salt, pepper, and paprika. In a container large enough to fit the salmon filets add 3 Tbsp olive oil, fresh dill, grated garlic, and lemon juice. Lay filets flesh side down, marinade for 30 minutes.
For the tzatziki sauce, in a bowl combine yogurt, shredded cucumbers, grated garlic, dill, lemon juice, 1 Tbsp olive oil and a pinch of salt. Stir and add in the sliced cucumbers and red onion.
In a large skillet over medium/high heat add a small amount of olive oil. Place the Salmon filets skin side down first. Sear the fillets for about 3-4 minutes, flip. Drop the heat to medium and pan fry the other side for 3-4 minutes or until internal temperature is 145F or to your desired preference.
Plate with rice, tzatziki sauce, red onions and cucumber. Garnish with extra dill and enjoy.
