Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces salmon steaks
- 400 grams green beans
- 200 grams cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium red onion
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the salmon steaks with salt and black pepper on both sides. Place them on the prepared baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Set aside.
Trim the ends off the green beans and blanch them in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Drain and immediately rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and thinly slice the red onion. Set aside.
In a small bowl, prepare the dressing by whisking together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, minced garlic, dijon mustard, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Bake the salmon steaks in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
While the salmon cooks, combine the green beans, cherry tomatoes, and red onion in a large bowl. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the salad with freshly chopped parsley and toss again. Adjust seasonings if needed.
Serve each salmon steak alongside a generous portion of green bean salad. Enjoy immediately!
