1

• Roughly chop tomato, baby spinach leaves and kalamata olives. • Finely chop garlic and parsley.• Cut lemon into wedges. • In a medium heatproof bowl, add garlic, chilli flakes (if using), a generous drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. • Microwave in 10 second bursts, until fragrant. Stir through parsley. Set aside.

2

• In a medium saucepan, combine the water, chicken stock pot and bring to the boil. • Add couscous and stir to combine. Cover with a lid and remove from heat. • Set aside until water is absorbed, 5 minutes. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and fluff up with fork.

Cook the salmon
3

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Pat salmon dry with paper towel and season both sides.
• When oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side.
TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!
