Spring Pilaf with Salmon and Asparagus
This version of stir-fry rice is a fine use for leftover salmon. You can make this even simpler by cooking rice and salmon a day ahead. Just warm both in the microwave before completing the dish.
4 cups water 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets (about 1 inch thick) Butter Pam 2 cups (1-inch) diagonally cut asparagus 3 cups hot cooked long-grain rice 1 cup fresh or frozen peas, thawed 1/2 cup vegetable broth 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Bring water to a boil in a large skillet; add salmon (skin side up). Return to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 10 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Remove fish with a slotted spoon and discard water; cool fish slightly. Remove and discard skin; break fish into large pieces. Return pan to heat; add pam and a little broth. Add asparagus; cook 6 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Stir in rice, peas, and broth; cook 1 minute. Add salmon, parsley, and remaining ingredients; stir well to combine. Cook 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Top with a little safe margarine and serve with white rolls.
Yield: 6 servings (serving size: 1 1/3 cups)
