Salmon with Vegetables

To prepare a delicious and healthy meal, we start with the salmon fillets, which we wash well under a stream of cold water. It is important to dry them with a kitchen towel before seasoning with a little salt, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat. Olive oil is essential in this recipe, so we heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the oil starts to sizzle, we add the salmon fillets, being careful not to overcrowd the pan to ensure the fish cooks evenly. The salmon is cooked for about 4-5 minutes on each side until it turns golden and crispy on the outside, while the inside remains juicy and tender.

Meanwhile, we dedicate ourselves to preparing the vegetables. Another pan is ideal for cooking the vegetables, and again we add olive oil and wait for it to sizzle. The peppers, already washed and cut into thin strips, are the first to go into the pan. They bring a note of sweetness and crunch to our dish. After a few minutes, we add the tomatoes, which will provide an extra acidity and juiciness, followed by cucumber, carrot, and celery stalk, all cut into cubes or strips. It is important for the vegetables to be fresh, as their taste will significantly influence the final dish.

Once all the vegetables are in the pan, we season them with salt and pepper to taste. We let the mixture simmer over medium heat for a maximum of 10 minutes, being careful to keep their crunchy texture. If the tomatoes are not very juicy, we can add a tablespoon or two of water to create a little sauce. This will help to enhance the flavors and create a delicious sauce that will perfectly combine with the salmon.

Once the salmon is perfectly cooked, and the vegetables are "al dente," we are ready to serve. The taste pleasure comes from the combination of these simple yet fresh and flavorful ingredients. We place the salmon fillets on a plate, alongside the colorful vegetables, creating an appealing culinary picture. Enjoy your meal!
