Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets (£4.40)
  • 160 g tenderstem broccoli (£1.35)
  • 6 tomatoes, sliced into thick wedges (£0.95)
  • 260 g asparagus (£0.69x2)=(£1.38)
  • 1 red pepper, thinly sliced (£0.59)
  • Fresh coriander (£0.52)

Cupboard Essentials

  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • Salt & Pepper

Instructions

Preheat oven to 190°C FAN/ 210°C Conventional

  • Start by adding the tomatoes, tenderstem, asparagus and red pepper into the tray. Coat with 1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Pop in the oven for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, add your salmon fillets to a bowl and coat with 1 tbsp of soy sauce, 1 tbsp of honey and the remaining olive oil. Stir to get everything incorporated, and set aside in the fridge.
  • When your timer has gone off, remove the tray from the oven. Coat the vegetables in 2 tbsp of soy sauce and 1 tbsp of honey. Add the marinated salmon and asparagus into the tray, skin facing down. Pop the tray back in the oven and cook for a further 10 minutes.
  • Top with coriander and chilli flakes, then dive in!

Notes

  • Avoid overcooking salmon; treat it like cookingsteak with desired doneness (medium rare, medium, etc.).
  • Allow salmon to rest for 10 minutes post-cooking for juicier, flakier texture.
  • Skip eating the skin in this recipe as it won't crisp up due to the sauce; discard once cooked.
