Ingredients

• 1.5 pound salmon fillet (skinless, portioned)
• 2 can chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
• 2 cup frozen green peas (thawed)
• 2 cup baby carrots (sliced thin)
• 1.5 tablespoon avocado oil
• 2 tablespoon fresh dill (finely chopped)
• 2 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Position an oven rack 6 inches below the broiler and preheat the broiler to high. Line a baking sheet with foil.
2. Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush with 1/2 tablespoon of avocado oil and season with 1/4 teaspoon of salt, black pepper, and 1 tablespoon of fresh dill.
3. Broil the salmon for 7 to 9 minutes until the tops are lightly caramelized and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
4. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced baby carrots and 2 tablespoons of water; cook covered for 4 minutes until crisp-tender.
5. Add the chickpeas, green peas, remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt, remaining dill, and lemon juice to the skillet. Toss gently for 2 minutes until heated through, then serve alongside the broiled salmon.

Notes

Watch the salmon closely under the broiler to prevent overcooking and preserve moisture.
