Instructions
- 1.Rinse the millet. In a medium pot, bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Add the millet, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the liquid is absorbed.
- 2.While the millet cooks, thinly slice the fennel bulb, halve the cherry tomatoes, and mince the garlic.
- 3.Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced fennel and cook for 6-8 minutes until tender and lightly charred. Add the cherry tomatoes and garlic, cooking for another 2-3 minutes. Stir in the fresh spinach until just wilted, then remove the vegetable mixture from the skillet.
- 4.Pat the mackerel fillets dry and season both sides with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika.
- 5.Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in the same skillet. Place fillets skin-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crisp. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
- 6.Fluff the cooked millet with a fork. Gently fold in the cooked vegetable mixture, the chopped fresh dill, and the juice of half a lemon. Season to taste.
- 7.Divide the herbed millet and vegetable mix among four plates. Top each with a pan-seared mackerel fillet and serve with a lemon wedge.
