Cal/Serv: 285

Ingredients:

2 Tbsp. plus 2 tsp. olive oil, divided

1 ¼ lb. skinless salmon fillet, cut into 4 portions 

1 lb. green beans, trimmed

Kosher salt and pepper

4 cloves garlic, smashed and thinly sliced

1 small red chile, thinly sliced

2 Tbsp. capers, drained, patted dry

Lemon wedges, for serving

Directions:

1. Before you begin: Wash your hands.

2. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet on medium-high. Season salmon with ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper, add to skillet, flesh side down, reduce heat to medium, and cook until golden brown and just opaque throughout, 5 to 6 minutes per side. 

3. Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large cast-iron skillet on medium-high. Add green beans and cook until browned, 2½ minutes. Turn with tongs and cook until browned and just barely tender, about 3 minutes more. 

4. Remove from heat and toss with ¼ teaspoon salt, then garlic, chile, and capers. Return to medium heat and cook, tossing until garlic is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve with salmon and lemon wedges if desired.
