Ingredients
2 tbsp olive oil
2 large limes, 1 juiced, 1 cut into wedges to serve
10g fresh mint, leaves finely chopped, plus extra leaves to garnish
½ small red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
260g boneless salmon fillets
1 tbsp sesame seeds
150g edamame soya beans
100g fine green beans, trimmed and halved
100g frozen peas
75g mangetout, halved lengthways
a pinch of sugar and seasoning to taste
Method
1. Whisk 1½ tbsp oil with the lime juice, a pinch of sugar and the chopped mint and chilli. Season to taste; set aside.
2. Spread the sesame seeds out on a plate. Season the salmon with black pepper, then coat in the seeds.
3. Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat, swirling the pan to coat. Add the salmon and fry for 1½ -2 mins on all 4 sides until the seeds are golden. Reduce the heat to low; cook for 2 mins or until the salmon is cooked through. Transfer to a warm plate, cover and leave to rest.
4. Meanwhile, steam the beans, peas and mangetout for 5-6 mins until just tender. Transfer to a bowl and stir in two-thirds of the lime and mint dressing.
5. Divide the pea and bean mixture between 2 plates. Top with the salmon and drizzle over the remaining dressing. Serve with the lime wedges and garnish with the extra mint leaves.

A perfect summer meal.
You always have such varied meals. Which makes me a tad ashamed. I have rather a lot of regular go to dinners.
No sport here. Domestic duties.
Sounds like the perfect summer dinner and most of the ingredients I already have in the house.
There are so much green and healthy fats here
I'd for sure like that!!!!
Very yummy -Christine cmlk79.blogspot.com
Oh my! That does look very, very yummy and healthy indeed. I did recognize the edamame.
Rico salmón. Gracias por la reseña. Te mando un beso.
As to plans...I met my brother and his wife and their daughter and her family at a nearby park this afternoon. First time i had met his grandkids...it was fun. Good thing we chose the park for the playground....the grandchildren are never still. They would have been bored silly here.
A very healthy and nutritious meal!
That look lovely.
I've been watching the tennis too but everyday it's rain delayed, then it's bedtime for me down here...never mins.
Light and tasty and so good for you:-)

Boa tarde, excelente domingo e um bom início de semana. Dica maravilhosa, aqui estamos num inverno, com cara de outono.
This looks tasty. I have mint but never remember to use it.
Genial, me ha encantado la receta. Feliz semana.
This is a wonderful summer dinner. Love salmon and beans. The mint is a nice touch I'd not thought of.
one of hubby's favorite meals, good luck in the play offs!
