  • 1 small sized red bell pepper, diced 1/4 inch
  • 4 medium cloves garlic pressed
  • 1 TBS + 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
  • 15 oz can black beans, drained
  • 1½ TBS red chili powder
  • About 2 cups shredded romaine lettuce, outer leaves discarded
  • 1 medium avocado, cut into cubes

Preparation
Prep Time: 15min | Cook Time: 15min

Season salmon with a little salt and pepper. Set aside while you chop and sauté vegetables.

Mince onions and press garlic and let sit for at least 5 minutes to enhance their hidden health benefits.

Heat 1 TBS broth in a 10-12 inch stainless steel skillet. When broth begins to steam add onion, bell pepper and garlic and Healthy Sauté on medium heat for about 5 minutes stirring frequently.

Add 1/2 cup broth, drained beans, and red chili powder. Cook for another 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

While beans are cooking, preheat broiler. Place a stainless steel or cast iron skillet large enough for salmon under the heat to get hot. This takes about 10 minutes.

In a bowl mix together cilantro, mint, basil, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper.

Place salmon in the hot pan and return to broiler about 5 inches from the heat source for best results. Broil salmon for about 7 minutes for medium doneness.

Serve salmon, beans, lettuce and avocado together on a plate. Top salmon and lettuce with cilantro topping.
