Recipe: Salmon Burritos with Chili-Roasted Vegetables

Here's a great, healthy summer recipe. While the directions are for roasting in an oven, I think the salmon and the vegetables would be perfect on the grill for an early summer cookout.
·       1 lb. salmon fillet (about 1 in. thick), boned

·         2 Tbsp. olive oil

·         2 tsp. lime juice

·         4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced

·         1-1/2 tsp. ground dried chilies

·         1-1/2 tsp. salt

·         1 large sweet potato, peeled, quartered lengthwise, then sliced 1/4 in. thick

·         1 zucchini, halved lengthwise, then sliced 1/3 in. thick

·         1 red onion, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into 1/4-in.-thick wedges

·         1 fresh poblano chili, stemmed, seeded, and chopped

·         6 whole whole wheat flour tortillas (10 in. wide), warmed

·         Chopped cilantro, shredded cabbage, low-fat sour cream, and lime wedges

·         Aluminum foil

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line two 12-by-15-in. baking pans with aluminum foil. Whisk the olive oil, lime juice, garlic, ground dried chili, and salt together. Rinse salmon and pat dry. Brush flesh side of salmon with 2 Tbsp. of the lime-chili marinade. Set aside. In a medium bowl, toss the sweet potato, zucchini, onion, and chili with the remaining marinade. Arrange vegetables in a single layer on the baking pans. Roast vegetables for 10 minutes, then add salmon (skin-side down) to one pan and return to oven. Continue roasting until potatoes are tender when pierced and salmon is opaque but still moist-looking in center of thickest part, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove skin from salmon and slice fillet into 6 equal portions. Spoon vegetable mixture equally onto warm tortillas. Top each with a piece of salmon and a little cilantro, cabbage, and sour cream.* Fold tortilla over the filling. Serve with more sour cream and the lime wedges. Makes 6 servings.

*Cut the sour cream from the recipe to remove all saturated fat from this meal.
