1 side of salmon (about 800g)

1/2 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced

1 lime, zest and juice of

1 red chilli, de-seeded and finely chopped

Few sprigs coriander, plus extra to serve

Grease a sheet of foil large enough to fold around the salmon in a parcel. Put the fish on the foil, skin-side down, and scatter on the onion, lime zest, chilli and a few sprigs of coriander. Drizzle with the lime juice.

Wrap up to make a parcel, leaving room for air to circulate. Seal the edges. Put on a baking tray. Leave for 20 minutes to marinate.
3
Meanwhile, heat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4. Bake the fish for 25 minutes, then leave in the unopened parcel for another 5 minutes.
4
Open the parcel. Replace the coriander with fresh sprigs. Serve with salsa.
