Instructions

Roast the Potatoes
1
  • Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel).
  • Pop the potatoes onto a lined baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
  • When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Get Prepped
2
  • Meanwhile, roughly chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer). 
  • Zest half the lemon (double for 4p). Chop into quarters. 
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Trim the tip of the broccoli. Chop head into small florets and stem into 2cm pieces.
Cook the Broccoli
3
  • Pop the broccoli onto a separate lined baking tray.
  • Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
  • When the potatoes have been in the oven for 15-20 mins, pop the broccoli onto the middle shelf.
  • Roast until the edges are crispy and slightly charred, 10-15 mins.
Fry the Fish
4
  • Meanwhile, place a pan over high heat with 1 tbsp butter (double for 4p) and a drizzle of oil.
  • Season the salmon with salt and pepper.
  • Once the butter has melted, carefully place the salmon into the pan, skin-side down. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw fish.
  • Cook, skin-side down, for 4-5 mins.
  • Turn over and cook for 3-4 mins on the other side.
Baste in Butter
5
  • Add the chives, paprika and garlic to the pan.
  • Squeeze in the juice of two lemon wedges (double for 4p).
  • Cook, continuously spooning the chive butter sauce over the fish for 1-2 mins. IMPORTANT: Fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.
  • Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat.
Finish and Serve
6
  • When everything is ready, plate up the salmon with the roasted broccoli and potatoes alongside.
  • Spoon the melted buttery chive sauce from the pan over the fish.
  • Sprinkle with the lemon zest to finish.
  • Serve with any remaining lemon wedges for squeezing over.
