Slow Baked Salmon And Cherry Tomatoes Food

SALMON & MELTING CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium (10-inch) saute pan. Add the onion and saute over medium-low heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until very tender but not browned. Add the garlic and saute for 1 more minute. Stir in the tomatoes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid evaporates and the tomato sauce thickens slightly. Off the heat, stir in the vinegar and basil.
• Meanwhile, place a large (12-inch) cast-iron pan over high heat for 5 minutes. Brush the salmon all over with olive oil, sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, and place it skin side up in the pan. Cook the fish for 3 to 4 minutes without moving them, until browned. Turn the salmon skin side down with a small metal spatula and transfer the pan to the oven for 8 minutes. (The salmon will not be completely cooked through.) Remove the fish to a serving platter, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
• Reheat the tomatoes, season to taste, and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature along with the salmon.

ONE-PAN SALMON AND CHERRY TOMATO BAKE WITH LEMON AND PARSLEY

Steps:

• Turn oven on to 200 degrees C (Gas Mark 6).
• In a large oven proof dish, add 1 tbsp of Olive Oil and spread all of the bottom of the dish. Lay the Salmon Fillets in the dish (they should be parallel to each other, but not touching each other).
• Place the washed Cherry (or Baby Plum) Tomatoes in the same dish, around and in between the salmon fillets.
• Season the salmon fillets and tomatoes with a generous amount of salt and pepper; sprinkle 1 tsp of Paprika all over the salmon and tomatoes; and finally, sprinkle the chopped parsley all over the salmon fillets (if you still have some left, sprinkle over the tomatoes).
• Cut the butter into 4 even pieces. Slice the two end of the lemon off, then slice the rest of the lemon into 4 slices. Top each salmon fillet with one piece of butter, then one slice of lemon.
• Take a large sheet of aluminium foil (large enough to cover the whole dish). Cover the dish with foil, scrunching the sides as tightly as possible (the aim is not to allow any air to escape during the cooking process, so make sure the dish is as tightly covered with foil as possible).
• Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes. When ready, take out of the oven, remove the foil from the dish (take care not to get burnt by the escaping steam).
• Serve the fish and tomatoes on a bed of steamed plain basmati rice, pouring any juices left in the pan on top.
