Baked Salmon with Roasted Vegetables

Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (approx 150g each)
  • 1 courgette, sliced
  • 1 red pepper, sliced
  • 200g cherry tomatoes
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Zest and juice of 1 lemon
  • Fresh dill or parsley, to serve
  • Salt and pepper

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Arrange vegetables on a large baking tray, drizzle with 2 tbsp oil, season and toss. Roast for 15 minutes.
  2. Mix remaining oil, garlic, oregano, lemon zest and juice. Season well.
  3. Push vegetables to the edges of the tray. Place salmon in the centre and spoon over the herb oil.
  4. Bake for 12–15 minutes until salmon is just cooked through.
  5. Scatter with fresh herbs and serve straight from the tray.

Tips

Works equally well with sea bass, cod or trout. Add a handful of olives or capers to the vegetables for extra flavour.
