Salmon with Roasted Tomatoes & Olives

 

As you may have guessed from the blogs I write, I am a vegi but my lovely husband isn’t. Whilst it often means we make two separate dishes for our meals, it doesn’t bother me, I love cooking and like to try new recipes for him. The only downside is that I obviously can’t taste them, so I have to trust him when he says they are nice!!

I made this baked salmon with roasted tomatoes and olives for him last week, it was super quick and easy to make. The recipe I used did suggest using fresh salmon fillets but I used frozen ones so just cooked the dish for a little longer and it worked well.

Try this recipe for a quick and easy meal when you get home from work.

Ingredients:

Salmon fillet x 1 per person

1 x red onion, chopped

2 tsp garlic

1 tbsp olive oil

400g cherry or plum tomatoes

Fresh rosemary

Handful of black olives, halved

Method

1. Place the onion, olive oil and garlic in an oven dish and roast for about 10 minutes.

2. Add the salmon fillet, olives, tomatoes and rosemary,  bake accordingly whether you are using fresh or frozen salmon.

3. Half way through, spoon some of the mixture of the over the salmon so it absorbs the flavours.

4. Enjoy with some roasted veg or steamed green beans and brocolli.
