Bake salmon and broccoli (on upper oven rack) for 6-8 minutes for medium-rare, or until salmon is cooked to your liking and broccoli is slightly charred. If salmon is cooked before broccoli, remove from oven tray and return broccoli for the final 1-2 minutes.
While salmon and broccoli are cooking, roughly chop kale leaves. When leek has finished cooking, stir through kale and lemon zest and season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
To serve, divide lemon peas, leek and kale between plates. Top with a piece of caper-baked salmon and serve broccoli on the side. Garnish with a wedge of lemon to squeeze over just before eating.
