Ingredients

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/Gas 7.
2. Place the salmon on a baking tray, season and roast in the oven for
   8-10 minutes until cooked but still with a slightly pink centre. Cool slightly then flake into large chunks. Switch the oven to its grill setting.
3. Meanwhile, bring a pan of salted water to the boil and cook the pasta until al dente, drain and return to the pan.
4. While the pasta is cooking, heat the oil in a deep frying pan or shallow casserole, over a low heat. Add the onion and garlic, and fry for
   3-4 minutes before increasing the heat to high and adding the chopped tomatoes, olives and half the parsley. Cook for a further
   5 minutes until the tomatoes start to break down slightly. Add the pasta and flaked salmon and mix until well combined. If the handles of your pan aren't ovenproof, tip the pasta into a baking dish.
5. Mix together the remaining parsley, the breadcrumbs and grated cheese and sprinkle over the pasta. Grill for
   5 minutes until golden and slightly crisp.
