Ingredients

  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil 45 ml
  • 4 salmon fillets 4 oz / 115 grams each
  • 1 medium yellow onion (thinly sliced)
  • 6 cloves garlic (thinly sliced)
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine 120 ml
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth 120 ml
  • 1 cup frozen peas 140 grams
  • sea salt & black pepper
  • chopped parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat a large fry pan with a medium heat and add in the olive oil

  2. In the meantime, lay the salmon fillets over some paper towels and gently pat dry, then season with salt & pepper on both sides

  3. Once the oil is nice and hot, add in the salmon fillets, all in a single layer, and lightly sear for just 1 minute per side, then remove from the pan and set aside

  4. Using the same pan with the same heat, add in the sliced onion and sliced garlic, mix together, then mix every 1 to 2 minutes so everything evenly sautés

  5. After 6 to 8 minutes and the onions are slightly translucent, add in the white wine, bay leaf, and season with salt & pepper, give it a mix, and then let it simmer

  6. Once the alcohol has cooked off from the wine, about 3 minutes, add in the chicken broth and raise it to a high heat, give it a gentle mix

  7. When it comes to a light boil, add in the frozen peas and mix together until well mixed, then gently add the salmon fillets back into the pan, once again in a single layer, and gently flip each one so they're fully coated in all that goodness, and then place a lid on the pan and lower to a low-medium heat, and simmer for 3 to 4 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and the peas are tender

  8. Transfer into serving dishes and top off with chopped parsley, enjoy!
