High-Protein Sleep-Friendly Salmon Veggie Skillet

Ingredients

• 1 cup Broccoli floret
• 0.5 cup Bell pepper
• 150 g Salmon fillet
• 2 Whole egg
• 0.25 cup Onion
• 1 To taste black pepper
• 0.5 tsp Dried herbs (oregano, thyme, or mixed herbs)
• 0.5 cup Tomatoes (cherry or diced)
• 1 Clove garlic
• 1 To taste salt
• 1 tbsp Olive oil or butter

Method

1. 0

   Prep the ingredients: cut the salmon into bite-sized pieces, chop the broccoli into small florets, slice the onion and peppers, dice or halve the tomatoes, and mince the garlic.

2. 1

   Heat the olive oil or butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for 2–3 minutes until fragrant and slightly softened.

3. 2

   Add the broccoli and peppers to the pan with a pinch of salt. Cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they start to soften but still have some crunch.

4. 3

   Push the veggies to one side of the pan and add the salmon pieces to the other side. Season the salmon with salt, pepper, and dried herbs. Cook for 3–4 minutes per side, until just cooked through.

5. 4

   Crack the eggs into a small bowl, whisk with a pinch of salt and pepper, then pour over the veggie side of the pan. Gently scramble the eggs among the vegetables until just set.

6. 5

   Add the tomatoes to the pan in the last 1–2 minutes of cooking so they warm through but stay fresh. Gently toss everything together, being careful not to break up the salmon too much.

7. 6

   Taste and adjust seasoning, then serve warm. This works well as an early dinner or a 2–3 hours-before-bed meal to support steady energy and avoid a big carb spike before sleep.
