Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 19

150g green beans
150g thin-stemmed broccoli
6 spring onions
3 tsp olive oil
4 salmon fillets, check for bones (see tip, below)
3 tbsp mango chutney
2 tsp low-salt soy sauce
1 tsp ginger purée
small handful of coriander
cooked noodles or rice, to serve
chopping board
sharp knife
large saucepan
colander
large baking tray (ours was 30cm x 40cm)
kitchen tweezers (optional)
measuring spoons
small bowl
oven gloves

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put a chopping board on your work surface. Snap or carefully chop the stalks off the ends of the green beans. Cut any thick stems of broccoli in half lengthways. Cut the root ends and about 2cm off the green tops of the spring onions, then cut each onion into 3 batons.
  • Fill a large saucepan halfway with water, put it on the hob and turn the heat on to medium-high until the water boils. Carefully tip the prepared vegetables into the pan of boiling water and simmer for 1 min. Put a colander in the sink and carefully tip the veggies and water into it.
  • Find a large baking tray (ours was 30cm x 40cm). Tip the cooked veggies into the tray and drizzle with 2 tsp olive oil. Season with a pinch of salt and toss through the oil until well coated.
  • Push the veggies to the edge of the tray, making space in the middle, then lay the salmon, with the skin side down, in that space. Drizzle the remaining 1 tsp oil over the salmon and season with a pinch of salt.
  • In a bowl, measure 3 tbsp mango chutney, 2 tsp soy sauce and 1 tsp ginger purée, and mix the ingredients together to make a sauce. Pour half the sauce over the veg and salmon.
  • Use oven gloves to carefully put the tray on the middle shelf of the oven. Cook for 15 mins.
  • Carefully remove the tray from the oven using the oven gloves and pour the rest of the sauce over the salmon. Return to the oven for another 5 mins. Pick the coriander leaves and scatter these over the salmon and veg. Serve with cooked noodles or rice.

SHEET-PAN JERK SALMON



Sheet-Pan Jerk Salmon image

Broiling is one of the quickest ways to cook salmon, and retain its moisture. It heats the outside while keeping the inside tender. When making this jerk salmon, your house may smell like a charcoal grill in the Caribbean. Don't worry if the fish darkens considerably as it cooks; that's when you know it's almost done. Finish it off with a mango slaw or classic carrot salad to make your dinner look as vivid as it tastes.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Nonstick cooking spray (optional)
4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets, about 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons jerk seasoning paste (hot or mild)
1 teaspoon sweet or hot paprika
Kosher salt (optional)
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
mango slaw or classic carrot salad, for serving

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack 6 inches from the broiler and set the broiler to high. Line a rimmed sheet pan with aluminum foil or lightly coat with cooking spray.
  • Place salmon on a cutting board, skin-side up. Using a sharp knife, cut through the skin about 1/8-inch deep, in 3 different places, making sure not to cut all the way through to the flesh.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, jerk seasoning, paprika and salt, if using. (The jerk seasoning has plenty of salt, so taste before adding salt.) Place salmon portions in the mixture and coat evenly, ensuring the mixture gets into the scored flesh.
  • Place on the sheet pan, skin-side up, and broil until the skin is crispy and flesh is opaque, 10 to 12 minutes. The exterior will darken considerably, but don't be alarmed. The high heat will help keep the inside moist. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley. Serve with mango slaw or carrot salad.
