450g
1 cup fresh parsley
60g
2 cups cherry tomatoes
360g
1/4 cup scallions
30g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Rinse the fresh parsley under cold water, shake off excess water, and roughly chop it. Set aside.
- Rinse the cherry tomatoes and cut them in half. Set aside.
- Rinse the scallions and finely chop them. Set aside.
2. Cook the Salmon:
- Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- While the oil is heating, pat the salmon dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Once the oil is hot, place the salmon in the skillet, skin-side down (if the skin is on), and cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and the fish is partially cooked.
- Flip the salmon and cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time might vary depending on the thickness of the salmon fillets.
- Once cooked, remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest on a plate.
3. Prepare the Parsley Salad:
- In a large bowl, combine the chopped parsley, halved cherry tomatoes, and chopped scallions.
- Drizzle the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil over the salad mixture.
- Toss the salad gently to coat all the ingredients in the olive oil.
- Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Serve:
- Place a portion of the parsley salad on each serving plate.
- Top with a piece of cooked salmon.
- Optionally, garnish with a lemon wedge or a sprinkle of extra parsley for a bright, fresh flavor.
5. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately while the salmon is still warm. Enjoy your nutritious and delicious meal of Salmon with Parsley Salad.

Tips:

- For added flavor, consider marinating the salmon in olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs for at least 30 minutes before baking.

- Make sure to use fresh parsley and ripe cherry tomatoes for the best taste and texture in the salad.
