Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare all the ingredients by mincing the garlic, chopping the celery and almonds, peeling and cubing the pumpkin, and chopping the coriander leaves.
- In a large oven-safe skillet or pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic and chopped celery to the pan. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until the celery becomes soft and the garlic is fragrant.
- Stir in the ground cumin and paprika. Cook for an additional 1 minute, ensuring the spices are well combined with the garlic and celery.
- Add the chopped almonds to the skillet, stirring to coat them in the spiced mixture.
- Add the cubed pumpkin to the skillet, stirring to mix everything together.
- Pour in the canned tomatoes (including the juice). Mix well.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pumpkin begins to soften.
- While the pumpkin mixture is simmering, season the salmon fillets with a bit of salt and pepper.
- Gently place the salmon fillets on top of the pumpkin and tomato mixture in the skillet.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Remove the skillet from the oven. Garnish with the freshly chopped coriander leaves.
- Serve the salmon with the spiced pumpkin and tomato mixture, dividing evenly among plates.
Tips:
- Make sure to preheat the oven for even cooking of the pumpkin.
- For a richer flavor, marinate the salmon with a little olive oil, garlic, cumin, and paprika before cooking.
- Dice the pumpkin into even-sized pieces for uniform cooking.
- Include a splash of lemon juice over the salmon before serving for an added zest.
- Toast the almonds lightly before adding them to the dish for a crunchier texture.
- Garnish with fresh coriander leaves just before serving for a burst of fresh flavor.
