Ingredients

• 2 pieces Salmon fillets
• 1 cup Short-grain rice
• 2 cups Water
• 3 tablespoons Butter
• 1 small Onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 1.5 cups Milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Rinse the rice under cold water. In a medium pot, combine the rice with 2 cups of water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes or until the rice is cooked. Set aside.

Step 3

Finely chop the onion and mince the garlic. Chop the parsley and set aside for garnish.

Step 4

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Sauté the onion and garlic until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Step 5

Sprinkle the flour over the onion mixture and cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 6

Gradually whisk in the milk and cream, cooking until the mixture begins to thicken, about 5 minutes.

Step 7

Stir in the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth. Season with salt and black pepper.

Step 8

Stir the cooked rice into the cheese sauce and mix well.

Step 9

Transfer the rice mixture into a greased baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 10

Season the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and lemon juice.

Step 11

Place the salmon fillets on top of the rice mixture and dot each with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and the top is golden brown.

Step 13

Garnish with fresh parsley before serving. Serve hot.
