Cooking Steps
1
- Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).
- Pop the potatoes onto a lined baking tray.
- Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
- When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.
TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
2
- Meanwhile, roughly chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer).
- Zest half the lemon (double for 4p). Chop into quarters.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Trim the tip of the broccoli. Chop head into small florets and stem into 2cm pieces.
3
- Pop the broccoli onto a separate lined baking tray.
- Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
- When the potatoes have been in the oven for 15-20 mins, pop the broccoli onto the middle shelf.
- Roast until the edges are crispy and slightly charred, 10-15 mins.
4
- Meanwhile, place a pan over high heat with 1 tbsp butter (double for 4p) and a drizzle of oil.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper.
- Once the butter has melted, carefully place the salmon into the pan, skin-side down. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw fish.
- Cook, skin-side down, for 4-5 mins.
- Turn over and cook for 3-4 mins on the other side.
5
- Add the chives, paprika and garlic to the pan.
- Squeeze in the juice of two lemon wedges (double for 4p).
- Cook, continuously spooning the chive butter sauce over the fish, for 1-2 mins. IMPORTANT: Fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.
- Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat.
6
- When everything is ready, plate up the salmon with the roasted broccoli and potatoes alongside.
- Spoon the melted buttery chive sauce from the pan over the fish.
- Sprinkle with the lemon zest to finish.
- Serve with any remaining lemon wedges for squeezing over.
