Simple oven-baked salmon with tender steamed broccoli — omega-3 rich, high protein, minimal prep.
Salmon is rich in omega-3 fats which may help with inflammation. The soft, flaky texture is easier to eat than chicken for many GLP-1 users.
Serves 1 · 5 min prep · 15 min cook
Preheat oven to 400F/200C. Line a baking sheet with parchment.
Place a 4oz (115g) salmon fillet on the sheet. Drizzle with 1/2 tsp olive oil, season with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.
~2 min
Bake for 12-14 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork.
~13 min
Use cod or tilapia for a milder fish flavour. Not viable for vegetarian/vegan.
Meanwhile, steam 1 cup (85g) broccoli florets until tender, about 5 minutes.
~5 min
Serve salmon over broccoli. Squeeze extra lemon on top.
Do not overcook the salmon — it should still be slightly translucent in the centre. It continues cooking after you remove it from the oven.
