Equipment

  • 1 Frying Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 4 ounces Salmon skin on, boneless
  • 1 cup Rainbow Chard chopped
  • 1 Lemon
  • 6 Olives leave whole, I enjoy a variety of green and kalamata
  • Salt to taste
  • Black Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Firstly, remove the peel from the lemon, making sure not to remove the pith, (the white part) from the fruit. Reserve the lemon for later.
  • In a medium sized frying pan, add the tablespoon of olive oil and heat over medium to high heat. Add the salmon, skin side down. Cook for 3 minutes. Move to the side of pan.

  • Add the lemon peel and olives, cook for 1 minute, constantly stirring the pan, or until the peel is nicely toasted and the olives have plumped. Flip the salmon over at this point, and brown the top side.
