One pan salmon with harissa tahini dressing
A perfect quick, easy and very tasty one pan salmon dish packed with flavour. The main ingredients are very simple, but elevated with a gorgeous harissa and tahini dressing which would also work well with chicken. You can swap the vegetables with the seasons too. Easy to make for 2 or for a larger crowd. It is nutritious enough to serve on its own, but you could also serve with lentils, brown rice or quinoa.

In a baking pan add a good splash of olive oil.
Add the steamed broccoli and sprouts.
Sprinkle the garlic.

Add 2/3 of the dressing over the veggies with a spoon.
Top with salmon fillets.
Spread the remaining dressing on top of the salmon.

I like to eat it on its own, but you could serve with a side of lentils, brown rice or quinoa.
The Health Boost Tip
For those wanting other options, you can swap for chicken. If interested in a vegetarian version this dressing also works well with tofu. You could also add chickpeas.
