The wine-butter sauce is a good complement to the dish, especially with caramelized lemon notes.
Asparagus and zucchini are quick and easy to grill and pair nicely with the salmon.
Use your favorite brand of kimchi, just be sure to drain it before adding.

Nothing goes to waste here, as the flesh from the zucchini gets chopped and mixed with the filling.
To ensure they cook evenly, use zucchini that are similar in size.
Crumbled feta and Kalamata olives add a briny punch.

There is just enough buttery sauce to coat the shrimp.
The trick is to not over-reduce the sauce when cooking it.
It’s better to make it a little more saucy then dry.

The sweetness of the squash balances the bitter kale, while a squeeze of lemon juice brightens the dish.
Be sure to spread the kale out on the baking sheet to encourage even browning.
Steaming the fish results in tender and moist fillets.

Skip green peppers, though, as they may be too bitter for this dish.
