SALMON WITH RED PEPPERS & OLIVES
A rich fish like salmon loves the bright lavors of the Mediterranean. Here, we top almon fillets with a lemony mix of olives, Imonds, and roasted red peppers. The pping not only adds delicious flavor but so keeps the fish moist while roasting. le salmon is plated over toasted pearl uscous combined with sweet dates and ricky sautéed kale.
