  • Total Time 25 minutes
  • Yield Serves 4

Ingredients

    • 1/4 cup pine nuts
    • 1/4 cup raisins
    • Slivered zest and juice of 1 lemon
    • 4 skinless salmon fillets, (6 ounces each)
    • Coarse salt and ground pepper
    • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
    • 3 tablespoons olive oil
    • 5 ounces baby spinach (about 5 cups), loosely packed

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spread pine nuts on a rimmed baking sheet; toast in oven, tossing occasionally, until lightly golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from sheet, and reserve.
  2. Meanwhile, place raisins and lemon zest in a small bowl; cover with boiling water. Set aside.

  5. Dividing evenly, make a bed of spinach on each of four plates, place salmon fillet on spinach; spoon lemon relish over the top.
