Broiled Salmon with Peppercorn-Lime Rub
Spice up fish night by giving salmon a delectable 4-ingredient rub before cooking. A quick quinoa-vegetable salad rounds out the meal.
How to Make It
Step 1
Preheat broiler.
Step 2
Place fish, skin sides down, on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Combine remaining ingredients except lime wedges; sprinkle over fish. Broil 7 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
Step 3
Quinoa-vegetable salad: Combine 1 1/4 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth and 3/4 cup uncooked quinoa in a medium saucepan; bring mixture to a boil. Cover and simmer 12 minutes or until liquid is almost absorbed. Stir in 1 1/2 cups chopped zucchini and 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper. Cover and cook 5 minutes or until liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives, 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.

Something Wrong Under the Broiler
I had the same problem as Audball82 -- the rub totally blackened under the broiler. Still, it had good flavor.

Good taste and not complicated at all. Definitely use 2T of grated lime rind (about 2 small limes). I only had one and I couldn't taste the lime. Even 2T may not be enough as I couldn't get the rub to spread on all of the salmon filets. I served this with salad and rice pilaf.

Simple and flavorful - I grilled the salmon and used a little extra garlic. I would serve this to guests but it is easy enough for every day.

Nice tangy fish, quinoa a bit bland - I added some extra lime juice and it was a bit better.

Incredibly easy & superfast. The lime/garlic/peppercorn was perfect on the salmon. Made the recommended hot salad before the fish went under the broiler, subbing basmati for the quinoa. Served with wilted spinach. Excellent meal.
