Tuscan Salmon and Risoni Tray Bake Recipe

Tuscan Salmon and Risoni


On weeknights, we want less washing up and more putting our feet up. Luckily this creamy salmon tray bake will be on the table in 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 (about 150g each) skinless boneless salmon fillets
  • 305g (11/2 cups) dried risoni pasta
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tbsp finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 2 Massel Chicken Style Stock Cubes
  • 300ml pouring cream
  • 75g (1/2 cup) semi-dried tomato strips (not in oil)
  • 60g baby spinach
  • 1 bunch broccolini, trimmed
  • 1 tbsp drained capers, fried (see tip)
  • 1 lemon, rind finely grated

Instruction

Step 1

Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan forced. Heat half the oil in a large flameproof baking dish over medium-high heat. Cook salmon, top-side down, for 2 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a plate.

Step 2

Heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil in the dish over high heat. Add the risoni, garlic, and rosemary. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until aromatic. Add stock cubes, cream, and 625ml (2½ cups) water. Stir to combine. Bring to the boil. Remove from heat and cover the dish tightly with foil. Bake for 12 minutes.

Step 3

Carefully remove the foil from the dish (be careful of escaping steam). Stir the tomato strips and spinach through the risoni mixture. Add the broccolini. Press to submerge slightly. Arrange the salmon, top-side up, on top, pressing gently into the mixture. Cook, uncovered, for 10 minutes or until broccolini is tender. Sprinkle with fried capers and lemon rind to serve.
