Ingredients

Salmon Bowls

  • 16 ounces wild caught salmon fillets
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 cups cooked rice
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

Greek Salad

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 cup diced cucumber
  • 1/4 cup diced red onion
  • 1/4 cup kalamata olives, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley
  • 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil

Tzatziki Sauce

  • 1/2 cup shredded cucumber, excess liquid squeezed out
  • 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions

  • Cook the rice according to package instructions. 
  • Preheat oven to 375° F. And line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper.
  • Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Combine all of the dried spices for the salmon in a small bowl and sprinkle it evenly over the fillets along with salt and pepper. Place the salmon onto the baking sheet and bake for for 8-12 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 110-120° F. If the salmon fillets have skin on them, remove the skin after they have baked.
  • While the salmon bakes, combine all of the ingredients for the Greek salad in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper and set aside. 
  • To make the tzatziki sauce, shred the cucumber on a box grater. Place it in a clean dish towel or paper towels. Squeeze out as much of the liquid as you can and then add it to a bowl along with the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, dill, salt and pepper. Stir everything together until well combined.
  • To assemble the bowls, add a 1/2 cup of rice (or however much you want) to a bowl. Top it with a salmon fillet, Greek salad, tzatziki sauce, and crumbled feta. Garnish with fresh dill or parsley if desired.
