Ingredients
- 8 oz. / 227 g salmon or trout fillets, preferably wild, cut into 2 pieces
- 2 Brazil nuts, unsalted
- 1 lemon or lime
- 1 tsp. / 3 g turmeric or curry blend
- ¼ tsp. / ½ g freshly ground black pepper
- ⅛ tsp. / ¼ g cayenne pepper
- ½ cup / 120 ml dry red wine
- 2 tsp. / 9 ml extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ tsp. / ¾ g mustard powder
- 2 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 1 cup / 67 g curly/Scotch kale, chopped
- 1 cup / 150 g fresh red tomato (whole or cherry), sliced or chopped
Directions
- Set oven to ‘broil’.
- Grind the Brazil nuts and toast in the oven until golden-brown and fragrant, stirring occasionally to ensure even results and prevent burning.
- Meanwhile, zest the lemon or lime, and cut the remaining fruit into large pieces.
- Puree together toasted nut meal, lime zest and fruit, turmeric/curry, peppers, half of the wine, and half of the olive oil. Coat fish or tempeh pieces with mixture, and set aside covered.
- Mix together remaining olive oil and wine with garlic and mustard powder. Toss mixture with kale leaves and tomato, and set aside covered.
- Reset oven to 450°F / 230°C. Line a baking pan with a large sheet of baking parchment (there should be excess parchment on at least 2 sides).
- Lay seasoned kale and tomatoes in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, followed by coated salmon. Tent with the baking parchment.
- Place in preheated oven, and allow to bake for 15-20 minutes, or until vegetables are soft and salmon flakes easily with a fork.
I keep seeing “broil” what is this??.. I’m from UK
Hi, Claire. “Broil” is essentially the same as “grill,” but usually refers to heat from above.
I have been away for a long time up north and gained some weigh
I did write a new menu as all my old ones were all gone but it did not work
very well example i love salmon, sprouted grain bread, all no ormones and
antibiotic meat English muffins free rang eggs and this is very seldom in my men
compare to my previous menus try to replace it but not on the list of replacement

What would you serve as side dish for this recipe?
Hi, Amber. We would suggest roasted or mashed potatoes or parsnips, potato or carrot pancakes, wild rice pilaf, or a cooked ancient grain like freekeh or oat groats, plus seasoned roasted vegetables or tossed green salad.
Hi, jacq334. Many of these recipes can be simplified – for example, you don’t need to add the nuts, and you can leave out seasonings, too. Otherwise, try doing a search for simpler recipes by typing in the search box in the recipe section any of the following: “basic,” “classic,” “quick,” “easy,” etc.
Grind the Brazil nuts? Really? I don’t like to cook and these recipes are really turning me off. Help!!
Hi, Ninn. This entire program is based on principles that are particularly supportive of people with hypoglycemia. We don’t use that word, but “blood sugar balance” and similar terms refer to that as well. We recommend lots of protein and fairly low carbs, with small meals throughout the day, including a night snack.
I am hoping to get my sister to do this plan with me, but she is hypo-glycemic. I have not seen anything about that – will it work for her?
Hi, Clara. This particular recipe has less than 200 mg per serving. If you are not already, I suggest you use the Menu Planner application to arrange your meals, so that you can select the foods that work for you, an avoid the ones that don’t. The arrangement will take care of the diabetic part. If you wish, I would be happy to analyze your finished menu to make sure you stay under the 1500 mg.
I am diabetic and have CHF and low sodium of 1500 mg per day are you able to furnish that information?
