🛒 Ingredients:
- 2 salmon fillets 🐟

- 2 cups cooked garlic butter rice 🍚🧄
- 1 large corn on the cob, boiled 🌽
- 1 cup broccoli florets, steamed 🥦
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice 🍋
- 2 garlic cloves, minced

👨🏾🍳 Instructions:
1. Marinate the seafood:
In a bowl, mix olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Add salmon fillets and shrimp, tossing gently to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Grill the salmon:
Preheat the grill (or grill pan) over medium heat. Grill salmon fillets for 4–5 minutes per side, or until charred and flaky.
3. Cook the shrimp:
Grill or sauté shrimp for 2–3 minutes per side until pink, juicy, and lightly crisp.
4. Prep your sides:
- Boil the corn on the cob until tender (about 7–10 mins).
- Steam the broccoli until just fork-tender, keeping its bright green color.
- Reheat or prepare your garlic butter rice.
5. Assemble the platter:
On a large plate or serving board, arrange salmon, shrimp, broccoli, corn, and a generous scoop of garlic rice. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with extra lemon wedges for a zesty finish 🍋✨
