One-pot meal: lime and honey glazed salmon with broccolini and rice

I got the recipe for this from the Kwik Kar where I last got my oil changed:

salmon

 

Really.  The waiting room had mostly sports magazines, so I picked up the Bon Apetit and this caught my eye.  We love fish and we eat a lot of broccolini, but we’re often too tired to cook.  Putting everything in one pot makes dinner seem much less daunting.

Don’t make my mistake of using a pot that looks like it is probably big enough, because having to switch everything to a bigger pot in the middle of the process negated the one-pot convenience and complicated the cooking time.  But other than that, easy!

I do prefer the way I usually cook broccolini, but even that requires two pots.  You almost can’t beat this for healthy convenience when it’s the end of a long day and you have already exhausted your weekly burrito allowance.  There is a little bit of prep with the limes and the shallots (and the cilantro, but it tastes like soap to me so I skipped it), but you’ll be done with that by the time the oven warms up.

That oil change a couple weeks ago was so fast that I didn’t even get a quarter of the way through the magazine.  After trying this, I almost want to go back and find out what recipes I missed…
