Harissa Roasted Salmon
Better Nutrition|May 2018

This simple “tray meal” packs a nutritional—and spicy—punch.

Harissa Roasted Salmon

Harissa is a hot chili sauce that’s common in North Africa, made from tomatoes, paprika, and red hot chili peppers. Yes, it’s got a fiery bite, but as Chef Jeannette points out, it’s really a complex flavor, not at all like straight-up peppers. The lemon and honey calm its fiery edge in this true “tray meal.”

For those of you—like me—who are new to the term “tray meal,” it refers to a simple meal that you broil or roast on one tray in a short period of time. In other words, simplicity itself, which is always a good thing in a recipe.

It’s worth noting that asparagus is packed with protein and light on calories. A cup contains a mere 40 calories, but over 4 grams of protein—not to mention 1.5 mg of iron and more than 400 mg of heart-healthy potassium (take that, bananas!). —Dr. Jonny
