Ingredients:

For the salmon:

2x120g (4.2 oz) salmon fillets;

7 tbsp. of reduced fat sour cream;

1 tbsp. of lemon juice;

10 fresh dill sprigs, chopped;

1 tsp. of fresh parsley leaves, chopped.

For the garnish:

2 small zucchinis (courgette), 118g (4 oz.) each, sliced into 1cm or 0.4" pieces;

1 garlic clove, chopped;

1 tbsp. of olive oil;

Salt and pepper to taste.

How to Bake Salmon:

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/gas mark 6.

Mix the sour cream with the lemon juice, dill, salt and pepper, and leave to one side.

Wash the salmon fillets under cold running water then pat the fish dry and place into a small baking dish.

Pour the lemon and dill cream over the salmon fillets and cook in the oven for 20 min.

How to Saute Zucchini:

It will take approx. 10 min to saute zucchini, so start when the fish has been already cooked in the oven for 10 min.

Heat a nonstick frying pan with 1 tbsp. of olive oil. When the oil is hot, throw in the zucchini slices with garlic and fry the zucchini on both sides until lightly golden in color, about 3-5 min on each side.

Serve the salmon and zucchini hot on a warm plate, garnished with fresh parsley.
