Wild Salmon Steakhouse

WITH CAULIFLOWER RICE & ASPARAGUS PILAF

The spicy marinated Wild Salmon Steakhouse fillet sits perfectly atop a bed of Cauliflower Rice & Asparagus Pilaf, which mimics the flavors of the wild-caught salmon and is finished with a bright burst of lemon zest and crunchy nuttiness from sliced almonds. A bonus for this recipe is that the pilaf comes together in the exact amount of time it takes the thawed salmon to bake, making this an easy go-to dinner any night of the week.

This recipe was created in collaboration with @pestoandpotatoes for the Morey’s Friday Night Cooking Club.
