Salmonfilet on a bed of spinach and tomatoes with cilantro and lime

The Summer has finally decided to show its face in Berlin, thus I have been inclined to cook something light and healthy. I very seldomly make any type of fish, mainly because I never quite know how to make it delicious. However! Finding out I had a tiny asian shop right around the corner from my apartment changed things. The store had fresh spinach AND cilantro! Two things you can hardly ever find in Berlin. So here it goes. A feast of iron and Omega-3 Acids!

Inredients for 1 serving:

1 Filet of salmon with skin (Roughly 125gr)
2 Cups of spinach
3 Small tomatoes (not cherry tomatoes but the ones inbetween)
1 spring onion
2tbsp Olive Oil
2 Garlic cloves
1 Lime
Fresh cilantro
Salt
Pepper

Slice the garlic in small slices and cut small slits in the salmon. Insert a couple of the garlic slices in the slits of the salmon and season the fish with salt and pepper, reserve some of the garlic for the spinach. Finally cut a slice of the lime and sprinkle the fish with the lime. Chop the tomatoes and spring onion

On medium heat, sauteé the Salmon skin side down in 1tbsp of olive oil. Meanwhile heat another tbsp of olive oil in a small pot and add the rest of the garlic, tomatoes and spring onion. Sauteé until soft. Add the spinach and flip the salmon. Let the spinach wilt and season with salt and pepper. Arrange on the plate. Chop the cilantro finely and arrange the salmon on the spinach. Sprinkle with cilantro and drizzle some more lime on the fish. Season with a tad more salt and serve with a good glass of white wine.

Bon Appetite!
