Try our twist on a classic Nicoise salad with our spiced salmon recipe. The traditional ingredients of potatoes, green beans, olives, tomatoes and eggs stay the same, but we’ve swapped the tuna for a beautiful salmon fillet. The fish is simply seasoned – a sprinkling of salt and smoky paprika on the salmon is all that’s needed. Roasting it in the oven leaves you with soft and flaky fish, which adds a texture contrast to the crunchy green beans, salty olives and fresh salad leaves. A simple dressing with Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar and olive oil adds a touch of acidity that brings this light dish together.

COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

  • 3 Place the salmon on a baking tray and roast for 15-20 minutes, depending on how thick the salmon is. Once cooked through, remove from the oven and leave to cool slightly.
