Jamie Oliver’s Smoky Chorizo Salmon
Ingredients
- 2 150g prepared skin-on salmon fillets
- 300g ripe mixed-colour cherry tomatoes
- 4 sprigs of fresh basil
- 8 black olives (stone in)
- 30g chorizo
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
Steps
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Put the salmon flesh side down in a large cold non-stick frying pan and place on a medium-high heat.
- As the pan comes up to temperature and the salmon begins to sizzle (about 3 mins), (if thick, I add it to the oven at 350 for 5 min, then continue) flip it over and cook on the skin side for 5 mins, or until very crisp and just cooked (depending on its thickness).
- Meanwhile, halve the cherry tomatoes, tear up most of the basil leaves, then toss it all with 1 tbsp red wine vinegar and black pepper. Squash the olives and discard the stones, then finely chop the flesh. Mix with the extra virgin olive oil and a splash of water.
- Finely slice the chorizo, add to the pan for the last 2 mins, then toss in the dressed tomatoes for 30 secs. Divide between your plates, with the salmon on top. Spoon over the dressed olives and pick over the remaining basil.
