Prepare the Ingredients
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Rinse the salmon fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Prepare the Garlic
Peel the garlic cloves and lightly crush them. This will help release their flavor while roasting.

Prepare the Leeks
Trim the ends of the leeks and slice them thinly. Rinse thoroughly to remove any dirt or grit.

Prepare the Rapini
Wash the rapini under cold water and trim off any tough stems. Blanch in boiling water for 2 minutes, then plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain and set aside.

Prepare the Sundried Tomatoes
If using dry sundried tomatoes, soak them in warm water for 15 minutes to soften. Chop into smaller pieces after soaking.
