Ingredients | Equipment to have ready |
4 salmon fillets | Baking tray |
1 tsp sunflower oil | Large microwave safe bowl |
1 tbsp Caribbean all-purpose seasoning | Clingfilm |
200g Basmati rice | Sharp knife |
1 tin black beans, drained | Chopping board |
25g coconut cream, roughly chopped | |
Two sprigs of thyme | |
12 tbsp frozen peas | |
½ pineapple, cut into a small dice | |
½ red onion, finely chopped | |
1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped | |
1 lime, juiced | |

Method
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Wash the salmon and dry with kitchen towel.
- Place on a baking tray, rub with the oil and Caribbean seasoning then season with a little salt and pepper. Set aside whilst you prepare the rice.
- Put the rice in a large bowl with the black beans, coconut cream and thyme. Pour in twice as much water as you have rice. Cover with cling film, pierce with a small hole and cook in the microwave on medium for 12 minutes.
- Once the rice is in the microwave, put the salmon in the oven and cook for 10-15 minutes, until cooked through.
- Whilst the rice and salmon are cooking, prepare the salsa. Mix the pineapple, red onion and red chilli together, pour on the lime juice and season with salt and pepper.
- When the rice is cooked, add the frozen peas and run a fork through to fluff it up. Cover over again and leave for a few minutes to allow the peas to defrost.
- Stir the coriander into the salsa just before serving.
