Salmon goes perfect with sweet potatoes, however, I wanted to make a change to make the dish more innovative. Therefore, instead of cooking the traditional salmon filet, I decided to cut it, mix it with sauté veggies and stuff it inside the baked sweet potatoes. After all, the craziness flavors were just amazing! Approximate Prep and Cooking Time: One Hour Approximate Cost: $10.45 or $5.23 per serving Difficulty Level: _____Easy _ X _ Intermediate ____ Advanced Servings: 2 Ingredients 2 salmon steaks cut in 1"slices ($4.50) 2 med. size sweet potatoes, cleaned and scrubbed well (@ .99/lb. = $1.10) 2 tsp. Angie's dry seasoning (or the one of your choice) (see my link below for recipe) (.40) 2 ½ tbsp. Angie's Basting oil (or the one of your choice) (see my link below for recipe) (.45) 1 lb. (about 2 small) Broccoli crowns cut in half and florets separated ($1.25) 1 cup of Brussels sprouts, cleaned, discard the outer leaves and sliced ($2.00) 1 small chopped onion (.35) 1 handful of Italian parsley to garnish (.40) Directions 1. Preheat oven at 400 degrees, prick the potatoes with a fork several times, rub them with ½ tsp. of my basting oil, fold them in foil paper and bake until tender. (About 45 minutes to one hour depending on your oven) 2. Season the salmon with 1 tbsp. of basting oil and 1 tsp. of my dry seasoning, slice accordingly. Refrigerate. 3. Clean the Brussels sprouts, chop the onion and sautéed until tender in 1 tbsp. of basting oil. Towards the end, sprinkle with 1 tsp. Of my dry seasoning. (Takes about 5 to 8 minutes) Also, steam the broccoli florets until tender, still green. 4. Sauté the salmon until golden brown, in its own basting oil, add the already cooked broccoli, mushroom and Brussels mix and set aside to fill the sweet potatoes when they are done. 5. Once the sweet potatoes are tender, slice a cut in the middle to open them up, remove some of the meat and mash it with basting olive oil to serve as a side. 6. Fill the sweet potatoes with the salmon mix. Garnish with parsley and broccoli. Done.
