Garlicky Broiled Salmon and Tomatoes

We had the Sodahls over tonight to thank them for taking care of miss Graycie while we were gone - so we had to make some sort of FISH!  This was AWESOME!!  I feel like I keep saying that - but this was so so so good and light.....AND it took like 5 seconds to make!

We just made up some shrimp with the Charlie's Honeymoon Sauce for an appetizer - and then served the salmon with brown rice and garlic bread.  It was PERFECT!!  I'm not really a fan of eating tomatoes (unless they are on a sandwich or burger), but they were so tasty and went perfect with the salmon!  Looks like this family is going to be making fish and seafood all the time :)


Ingredients:
4 (6oz) skinless salmon fillets
4 medium tomatoes, halved
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
8 sprigs fresh thyme
4 cloves garlic, sliced

Heat broiler.  Place the salmon and tomatoes, cut-side up, in a broiler safe roasting pan or on a rimmed baking sheet.

Sprinkle the salmon with the paprika.  Drizzle the salmon and tomatoes with the oil and season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and pepper.  Scatter the thyme and garlic over the top.

Broil until the salmon is opaque throughout and the tomatoes are tender, we did about 15 minutes - but started at 8 and checked every 2 minutes after.
