One-Pan Tuscan Salmon by Sally & Maha
RSF // 3190 K J/763 CAL PER SERVE
SERVES 2
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
2 x 120 g (41/4 oz) salmon fillets, skin on, pin-boned
pink salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon butter
1 small onion, finely diced
6 garlic cloves, crushed
165 g (5¾ oz/3/4 cup) sun-dried tomatoes (from a jar), drained and chopped
110 g (3¾ oz/½ cup) roasted red capsicum (pepper) (from a jar), drained and chopped
245 g (9 oz/1 cup) light sour cream
1 tablespoon cornflour (cornstarch)
1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf (Italian) parsley leaves
Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium–high
heat. Season the salmon on both sides with salt and
pepper, and sear, skin side up first, in the hot pan for
5 minutes on each side, or until cooked to your liking
(we like ours just opaque). Remove from the pan and
set aside.
Melt the butter in the same pan. Add the onion and
garlic and fry, stirring frequently, until light golden.
Add the sun-dried tomatoes and roasted capsicum
to the pan and fry for 2–3 minutes to release their
flavours. Reduce the heat to low.
In a bowl, whisk together the sour cream and cornflour
until smooth. Add to the pan, stirring well until the
sauce has thickened.
Return the salmon to the pan, sprinkle on the parsley
and spoon the sauce over each fillet. Great with
steamed rice.
