Ingredients

  • 14 large cloves garlic, divided

  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh oregano, divided

  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided

  • ¾ teaspoon freshly ground pepper, divided

  • 6 cups Brussels sprouts, trimmed and sliced

  • ¾ cup white wine, preferably Chardonnay

  • 2 pounds wild-caught salmon fillet, skinned, cut into 6 portions

  • Lemon wedges

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

  2. Mince 2 garlic cloves and combine in a small bowl with oil, 1 tablespoon oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Halve the remaining garlic and toss with Brussels sprouts and 3 tablespoons of the seasoned oil in a large roasting pan. Roast, stirring once, for 15 minutes.

  3. Add wine to the remaining oil mixture. Remove the pan from oven, stir the vegetables and place salmon on top. Drizzle with the wine mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining 1 tablespoon oregano and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Bake until the salmon is just cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes more. Serve with lemon wedges.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
