PCOS-Friendly Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Brussels Sprouts

by Fran Jakubowicz on Apr 23, 2023

Fish is a great protein source for those on a PCOS diet as it is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which have been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and reduce inflammation. This recipe features pan-seared salmon with a side of roasted Brussels sprouts. The salmon provides a great source of omega-3 fatty acids, while the Brussels sprouts are high in fiber and antioxidants. The balsamic vinegar and honey add a touch of sweetness to the roasted Brussels sprouts, making it a delicious side dish to pair with the flavorful salmon. Enjoy it for dinner one evening and use the leftovers in a salad for lunch the next day! 

Ingredients:

2 salmon filets, skin on

1 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp smoked paprika

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved

2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar

1 tbsp. honey

1 tbsp. olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste
