Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets skin-on or skinless
- 1 lb baby potatoes halved
- 3 tbsp olive oil divided
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary chopped
- 1 tsp thyme
- 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional
- 1 lemon zested and half juiced
- salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 tbsp butter melted
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet or dish with parchment or foil for easy cleanup.
- Step 2: In a bowl, toss halved potatoes with 1½ tbsp olive oil, half the minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Spread on baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
- Step 3: While potatoes roast, mix remaining olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, red pepper flakes, lemon zest, lemon juice, and melted butter. Rub over salmon fillets.
- Step 4: Push potatoes to the sides of the pan. Place salmon in the center. Roast for an additional 12–15 minutes, until salmon is cooked through and potatoes are golden.
- Step 5: Garnish with extra herbs or lemon slices if desired. Serve hot and enjoy!
Notes
For extra flavor, broil for 1–2 minutes at the end to crisp the salmon edges. Swap baby potatoes for sweet potatoes or add asparagus during the last 10 minutes of baking.
