Ingredients

Salmon

  • 4 salmon fillets skinned or one large piece
  • 30 ml olive oil
  • 100 g chorizo diced 1cm cubes
  • 3 cloves garlic chopped
  • 500 g passata
  • 1 tin butter beans drained
  • 100 g olives black preferred, or green
  • 60 ml honey
  • 100 ml single cream
  • 1 pinch chili flakes optional
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 6 g fresh parsley chopped for garnish

Sides

  • 500 g gnocchi pre-packed
  • 200 g tenderstem broccoli
  • 1 knob butter

Instructions

Salmon

  • Fry chorizo in a splash of olive oil for a few minutes until the oil turns red. Push chorizo to one side of the pan and fry the salmon fillets top-side down down for a minute – just to colour then turn over.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for a minute, then pour in the passata followed by the butter beans, olives, honey, oregano, chili flakes (if using) and season generously. Leave to simmer for a few minutes then drizzle in the cream and mix a little (try to avoid getting it over the salmon too much).
  • Bring to a gentle simmer then bake in the oven, uncovered, for 10 minutes, remove, garnish with chopped parsley.

Sides

  • Fry the tenderstem broccoli in a pan with a splash of oil for a minute, then season and add knob butter and pop into the oven with the salmon – remove once the salmon is done (only needs a few minutes).
  • Cook the gnocchi to packet instructions (about 3 minutes in salted boiling water) drain and drizzle with olive oil or knob of butter to stop them sticking and serve with salmon.

FLEXITARIAN

This is all about the sauce; swap for chicken breasts (half lengthways) or go for big slices of halloumi cooked same as salmon.
