Pour the marinade over the cubed salmon and leave to marinate for a few minutes. In the meantime, use a spiral slicer or julienne cutter to slice the courgettes into “spaghetti noodles”.

Heat the canola or peanut oil in a skillet. Sauté the courgette noodles and garlic for 2 minutes, until soft. Season with salt and pepper and remove from the pan. Set aside. In the same pan, sauté the cubed salmon for 3 to 4 minutes until tender.
