Tomato and basil are a perfect pair, but I think salmon and spicy chorizo are also a great couple. To serve this as a Main course (for two) rather than a starter (for four), you’d be best to make a salsa from the tomato and basil — just chop the tomatoes and tear the basil, then mix with the olive oil and lemon juice.

This is a very simple recipe but works so well. I found it because I had some left over chorizo. I cooked everything together in the pan including the tomatoes and added a few olives. I had salmon steaks and so had to cook for a bit longer, and turn them on their sides, but easy to see when they were done. Served with mashed potato and cabbage. A very tasty and quick supper.
