Salmon is so versatile and quick to cook that it makes for a great healthy meal option. 

I paired my oven-cooked salmon with an Asian marinade of soy, honey and lime for a very tasty meal that also happens to be low-carb and gluten-free (if you use 100% Buckwheat noodles). 

I also added some spiralized zucchini (courgette) and carrot noodles for some added crunch.

If you don’t have a spiralizer you can use a potato peeler to slice them into thin ribbons and then cut them into strips. This tastes really good cold, which makes for a good office lunch.

Ingredients

• ▢ 4 salmon fillets
• ▢ 2 large courgettes (zucchini)
• ▢ 3 large carrots
• ▢ 200 g (7oz) Soba noodles

Asian Marinade

• ▢ 1 shallot or small red onion , finely diced
• ▢ 1 red chilli , seeded and finely diced
• ▢ 1 large garlic clove , minced
• ▢ 2 tbsp fresh coriander (cilantro) finely chopped
• ▢ 1 lime juice only
• ▢ 4 tbsp soy sauce
• ▢ 3 tbsp honey (or agave syrup or dark brown sugar)
• ▢ 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• ▢ 1 tsp vinegar (rice vinegar preferably)
• ▢ ½ tsp minced fresh ginger (optional)
• ▢ 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds to serve (optional)
• ▢ Fresh coriander , chopped, to serve

Instructions

• Place the salmon fillets on a heavy tray lined with aluminum foil. Fold the edges up to create a little foil container.
• Mix all the marinade ingredients together and pour over the salmon. Cover and keep chilled for 30 minutes.
• Use a spiralizer to create long ribbons out of the carrots (or shred them in a food processor or finely slice them by hand).
• Preheat the oven to 180C (350F). Turn the salmon fillets skin side down. Arrange the carrot strips around them.
• Bake for 10 minutes or until the salmon is cooked halfway. Flip over carefully and bake for a further 10 minutes.
• While the salmon is cooking, bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add the noodles, stir, and lower the heat to a rolling simmer. Cook for 3-4 minutes until al dente (keep an eye on the pot as it has a tendency to boil over).
• Rinse with plenty of cold water, drain thoroughly and return to the pot.
• Use a spiralizer to create noodles out of the courgettes and mix with the soba noodles.
• Divide the noodles between four plates. Spoon some of the carrots and pan juices over them and top with the salmon.
• Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and a little coriander and serve.
