Ingredients

• 2 pieces salmon, skin on
• 200g dried fettuccine
• 1 lemon
• 1 zucchini, sliced 0.5cm thick
• 50g baby spinach
• olive oil
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. Fill a large pot or saucepan with water, season it well and place on a high temp to boil.
2. Heat a pan over medium heat with olive oil. Season the salmon with salt and place skin down into the pan. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked to your liking.

5. Season the zucchinis with salt, black pepper and the zest of the lemon.
6. Add the cooked and drained pasta, and the baby spinach to the pan with the zucchinis and toss.
7. Finish with a last drizzle of olive oil and the juice of the lemon.
