The method

  1. Gather & prepare

    Drain 240g tinned chickpeas. Slice 200g courgette (1 cm slices); zest and juice 1 whole lemon (zest and juice). Measure 400g tinned tomatoes (chopped), 1 tsp dried oregano and 15ml olive oil. Keep 300g salmon fillets (boneless fillets) chilled until loading; use separate raw-fish utensils.

  2. Set the oven

    Set the oven to 190°C fan. Allow space around each tray.

  3. Preheat the oven

    Wait for the oven to reach 190°C fan. The 10-minute estimate is a guide: confirm the oven indicator before continuing.

  4. Prepare the tray & load

    Mix 240g tinned chickpeas (drained), 400g tinned tomatoes (chopped), 200g courgette (1 cm slices), 1 tsp dried oregano, 15ml olive oil and 1 whole lemon (zest and juice) in the deep tray. Arrange 300g salmon fillets (boneless fillets) on top, spaced apart. Wash hands and raw-fish utensils. Load the preheated oven.

  5. Roast

    Roast at 190°C fan. Stay nearby and check at the end of the estimate.

    Check: Check the thickest part: the flesh must be opaque and separate easily with a fork. A clean probe can confirm 70°C for 2 minutes or 75°C for 30 seconds. Keep cooking if not ready.

  6. Check, finish & portion

    Check each salmon fillet at its thickest point, the courgette is tender and the chickpea mixture is steaming hot. Use clean serving utensils. Check the thickest part: the flesh must be opaque and separate easily with a fork. A clean probe can confirm 70°C for 2 minutes or 75°C for 30 seconds. Keep cooking if not ready. Serve now or portion for prompt cooling; do not wait for the other meals to finish.
