Method
 

  1. Begin by placing the salmon fillets in a frying pan with olive oil over medium heat. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5–7 minutes on each side or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork. Remove from the pan and let it rest.
  2. In the same frying pan, add the frozen peas and cherry tomatoes. Sauté for about 3–4 minutes until they begin to soften. Stir in the chopped fresh basil and tomato sauce, and cook for an additional 2 minutes until heated through.
  3. Place a whole wheat tortilla on a clean surface. Flake the cooked salmon and distribute it evenly on the tortilla. Top with the pea and tomato mixture, adjusting according to your taste.
  4. Roll the tortilla tightly, folding in the sides as you go for a secure wrap. Repeat for the second tortilla.
  5. Cut the wraps in half, serve alongside a simple side salad and a lime wedge for an added zing!
