Total Time:
Ingredients
- 2 cups long-grain white rice
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed
- 2 shallots, thinly sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
- 8 6-ounce pieces skinless salmon fillet
- lemon wedges, for serving
Directions
- Cook the rice according to the package directions.
- Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the green beans, shallots, garlic, and ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the beans are crisp-tender, 2 to 4 minutes. Add ½ cup water, cover, and cook until the beans are tender and the water has evaporated, 3 to 4 minutes more.
- Heat broiler. In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar, vinegar, the remaining teaspoon of oil, and ½ teaspoon salt (the mixture will be very thick).
- Place the salmon on a foil-lined broilerproof large rimmed baking sheet and broil for 5 minutes. Spoon the brown sugar mixture over the salmon, return to oven, and broil, basting twice with the liquid in the pan, until the salmon is opaque throughout, 2 to 4 minutes more.
- Reserve half the salmon, green beans, and rice for tomorrow’s dinner. Serve the remaining salmon, rice, and green beans with the lemon wedges.
- Reheat and serve: Reheat the salmon and green beans in a covered baking dish at 350° F for 10 to 12 minutes. Microwave the rice in a microwave-safe
bowl covered with a damp paper towel on high for 1 to 2 minutes.

Quick Tip

When trimming green beans, only the tough, knobby ends need to go. The skinny, tapered tips are tender and perfectly fine
to eat.

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
