Delicious and healthy, this one pot salmon with lentils and spinach is perfect for an elegant weeknight meal (in under 30 minutes).
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 salmon fillets (4 ounce size)
1 1/2 teaspoon Peri-Peri spice (or make your own using chili flakes, dried orange peel, garlic powder, and paprika)
salt and pepper
2 cans lentils, drained
1 pound baby spinach leaves
3/4 cup white wine
Heat oil in a large pot over medium high heat. Season flesh side of salmon fillets with salt and pepper and a teaspoon of Peri-Peri per fillet. Sear salmon flesh side down for 3-4 minutes until browned. Flip over and scatter drained lentils around fillets.
Pack spinach above salmon and lentils. Sprinkle with a little more salt and pepper. Add white wine. Put the lid on and turn the heat down to medium. Cook for about another 8 minutes.
Serve immediately, plating one salmon filet and some mixed lentils and spinach per person.
