Prep and cooking time: 20mins

Complex carb portions, per serving: 0

Freezable

Ingredients

Serves: 2

2 fresh salmon fillets, deboned and skinned

1 tsp Cajun seasoning

2 medium corn cobs or 200g frozen or tinned sweetcorn

300g cherry tomatoes, halved

1⁄2 medium cucumber, diced

1⁄2 medium avocado, diced

1 handful fresh coriander, roughly chopped

1-2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

1 lemon or lime, juiced

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6.

  2. Place the salmon on an ovenproof tray or dish, and evenly sprinkle the Cajun seasoning and a little salt and pepper.

  3. Bake the fillets for 10-15mins (depending on the thickness of the fillet), or cook to your liking.

  4. Meanwhile, cook the corn in a microwave or boil in salted water for 3-5mins, until tender. Strain and set aside to cool. If using tinned corn, rinse and drain instead.

  5. If using corn on the cob, use a sharp knife to slice down lengthways to remove the kernels.

  6. Place the corn, tomatoes, cucumber, avocado, and coriander in a bowl and add in a little salt and pepper. Drizzle with the oil and lemon juice, and stir gently.

  7. Serve the salmon with the salsa and a lemon or lime wedge.
