Ingredients
- 1 tbsp peanut oil
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp wholegrain mustard
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 skinless salmon fillets, about 200 g each
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- pinch red chilli flakes
- 400 g can butter beans, rinsed, and drained
- 2 tsp grated lemon zest
- 100 g (2 cups) baby spinach leaves, trimmed of any long stalks
- sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste
- 8 vine-ripened cherry tomatoes
To serve
- steamed baby potatoes in butter
- Lemon wedges
Instructions
- In a shallow dish, combine the peanut oil, soy sauce, honey, mustard and half the lemon juice. Add the salmon and turn to coat all over.
- Heat the oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and chilli flakes and stir until fragrant, then add the butter beans, lemon zest and the remaining lemon juice and gently heat through. Roughly crush the beans using a vegetable masher or fork. Stir in the spinach, season with salt and ground black pepper and gently heat until the spinach wilts.
- Meanwhile, heat a non- stick frying pan or chargrill pan over medium–high heat until hot. Cook the salmon for 3 - 4 minutes on each side, or until just firm and pink, adding the tomatoes during the last 1 - 2 minutes to warm them through.
- Serve the salmon and tomatoes on the beans, with buttered potatoes and lemon wedges on the side.
