Za'atar Crusted Salmon with Cauliflower Tabbouleh
"A vibrant and aromatic Middle Eastern dinner featuring omega-3 rich salmon coated in earthy za'atar spices, served over a refreshing grain-free cauliflower tabbouleh packed with fresh herbs, tomatoes, and lemon."
Preparation Steps
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and brush lightly with half of the olive oil.
Press the za'atar spice blend evenly onto the flesh side of the salmon fillet.
Place the salmon on the baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until cooked through and flakes easily.
While the salmon bakes, heat the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add the cauliflower rice and sauté for 4 to 5 minutes until just tender and slightly toasted.
Remove cauliflower rice from heat and let it cool slightly in a mixing bowl.
Stir the chopped parsley, fresh mint, diced cucumber, and quartered cherry tomatoes into the cauliflower rice.
Drizzle with fresh lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, and toss well to combine.
Serve the warm za'atar salmon over a generous bed of the fresh cauliflower tabbouleh.
