Ingredients
- 1 salmon steak
- 1 handful green peas
- Cherry tomatoes
- Lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh rosemary sprig
Instructions
- Place the salmon steak in a foil parcel with the peas and cherry tomatoes.
- Salt the fish, squeeze over lemon juice, season with pepper, and add the rosemary.
- Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 20-25 minutes.
Tips
- Seal the foil parcel well so the steam keeps the salmon juicy.
- Do not overbake — the salmon should flake easily but stay moist in the center.
- Serve straight from the parcel with crusty bread or a light salad.
