Instructions

Step 1

Sprinkle the salmon fillets with ½ tsp of smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Rub with half a tablespoon of olive oil.

Step 2

Heat your pan over a medium to high heat and place the salmon, skin side down. Using a small plate, apply some pressure to the salmon for about 20 seconds to prevent it from contracting.

Step 3

Continue to cook for about 7 minutes, then flip and cook on the other side for 2 minutes. Set the fish aside.

Step 4

For the sauce, start by heating remaining olive oil in the pan. Add the shallot and garlic to the pan and sauté. Add the cherry tomatoes, oregano, remaining paprika and 60ml of water. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 5

Add the chopped Tuscan kale and let it wilt in the sauce, followed by the coconut cream.

Step 6

Add the grilled salmon back into the sauce and garnish with a squeeze of lemon and a few leaves of fresh basil.
