Ingredients
4 salmon fillets, approximately 180 g each
3 tbsp Full Fruit Garlic Press EVOO, plus extra to finish
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
½ tsp sea salt
Freshly cracked black pepper
2 bunches broccolini, trimmed
1 bunch baby carrots, trimmed
Fresh lemon wedges, to serve
Method
1. Prepare the oven
Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper.
2. Prepare the vegetables
Arrange the broccolini and baby carrots on the tray. Drizzle with 1 tbsp Garlic Press EVOO and season lightly with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
3. Add the salmon
Place the salmon fillets amongst the vegetables. Drizzle with 2 tbsp Garlic Press EVOO and season with thyme, sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Arrange the lemon slices around the salmon.
4. Bake
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
5. Finish & serve
Serve the salmon with the roasted vegetables and fresh lemon wedges. Finish with a light drizzle of Garlic Press EVOO just before serving.
