Method

1
Heat the olive oil in a saucepan. Add the tomato paste, finely chopped anchovies, thinly sliced garlic cloves, and spices. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, for about 7 minutes until the garlic softens.
2
Slice the lemon into thin rounds and place the lemon slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
3
Remove any bones and excess fat from the salmon fillet. Pat dry with paper towels if necessary, and place on top of the lemons, skin-side down. Season with salt and pepper.
4
Spread the paste over the salmon and scatter the halved cherry tomatoes around it.
5
Bake at 175 degrees for 20-30 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.
6
Roughly chop the basil and flat-leaf parsley. Stir in the halved Kalamata olives, drained semi-dried cherry tomatoes, capers, and lemon juice. Spoon the herb salsa over the salmon and serve immediately.
