Salmon Steaks With Flavourful Veggies Alongside

Total Time: 25 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 2
• 2 salmon steaks, nice and thick
• 6 ounces green beans, young and tender
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, ripe and sweet (or use the small grape tomatoes)
• 1/4 cup black olives, pitted
• 1/4 cup basil leaves, roughly chopped (or use 2 teaspoons dried)
• 2 -3 anchovy fillets, chopped (as they come, don't rinse)
• 2 -3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper, coarsely ground

Recipe

• 1 set oven at 375 deg f/190 deg celsius.
• 2 cook the green beans quickly until still quite firm -- sort of par-boiled only.
• 3 put in a bowl, and mix with everything else up to the olive oil. add some flaky sea salt (just a pinch) and mix inches.
• 4 salt and pepper the salmon steaks.
• 5 season the fish with salt and the pepper. put the fish steaks in a smallish oven dish with the skin side up.
• 6 put the vegetable mixture close against the fish, heaped -- that's why you need a small enough dish, so everything lies tightly together and can't spread.
• 7 bake for (about) 15 minutes in the preheated oven. if a fork or skewer penetrates the fish easily, it's done, and take it out quickly. fish is quickly overdone.
• 8 the juices from the olives and tomatoes should help season the fish.
