Cooking Steps
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C fan-forced.
In a small bowl, add the yoghurt, dill, and lemon juice. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper. Cover and then place in the fridge.
Heat a small saucepan over a medium-high heat and add some olive oil. Add in the onion and sauté for 2 minutes then throw in the garlic, diced tomatoes, chickpeas, and white wine and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it simmer away for a good 12 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Taste along the way and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Meanwhile, heat some oil in an oven proof pan over a high heat. Season the skin side of the salmon with salt and pepper. Add to the pan skin side down, cook for 3 minutes. Turn the salmon over and place the whole pan into the oven and cook for a further 5 minutes or until just cooked (cook for less time if you like it medium-rare). If you don’t have an ovenproof pan, simply just turn the heat down before you turn your salmon over and cover the pan with a lid and cook for a further 5-7 minutes.
Divide the braised chickpeas between plates and then top with the salmon and finally the yoghurt dressing, enjoy! Did you know? Prince Charles is said to use wine to power his vintage Aston Martin - it’s meant to reduce carbon emissions but definitely comes at a cost!
