CREAMY GARLIC, LEMON & SPINACH SALMON



Creamy garlic, lemon & spinach salmon image

Cook our 20-minute salmon supper for two and serve with sweet potato mash. It takes just a handful of ingredients to make and delivers two of your 5-a-day

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 sweet potatoes
1 tbsp olive oil or rapeseed oil
2 salmon fillets, skin removed
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
170g baby spinach
1 lemon, zested and ½ juiced, ½ thinly sliced
75g mascarpone
5 tbsp milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Pierce the sweet potatoes a few times each and microwave on high for 5 mins until soft (alternatively, bake for 35-40 mins). Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • Heat half the oil in a frying pan and lightly brown the salmon on both sides - don't worry about it being cooked through at this point. Transfer the salmon to a plate, wipe out the pan and heat the remaining oil. Cook the garlic for 30 seconds, without letting it brown, then add the spinach, lemon zest and juice and some seasoning. Stir in the mascarpone and 2 tbsp of the milk and cook until the spinach has wilted.
  • Tip the spinach mix into an ovenproof dish and top with the lemon slices and salmon fillets. Bake for 5-8 mins until the salmon is cooked through.
  • Meanwhile, scoop the sweet potato flesh from the skins and mash with the remaining milk and some seasoning. Serve the sweet potato mash alongside the salmon and creamy spinach.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh and firm salmon fillets: Look for fillets that are bright pink in color and have no signs of browning or bruising.
  • Season the salmon fillets generously: Use a combination of salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices to enhance the flavor of the fish.
  • Cook the salmon fillets until they are just cooked through: Overcooking will dry out the fish, so cook it until it is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you are cooking multiple fillets, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they cook evenly.
  • Serve the salmon fillets immediately: Salmon is best served hot, so don't let it sit around for too long before serving.

Conclusion:

This recipe for salmon fillets with spinach is a healthy and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the spinach is wilted and flavorful. The lemon-butter sauce is the perfect finishing touch to this dish. If you are looking for a simple and tasty salmon recipe, this is the one for you.
