Servings: 4
- 1.5 lbs baby yellow potatoes halved
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 1/2 tsp garlic herb seasoning
- 1.5 lbs salmon filet
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp butter melted, or use olive oil
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- zest and juice of 1 small lemon or 1/2 large lemon
- fresh parsley for garnish optional
Preheat oven to 425° F. Add the potatoes to a small bowl, then drizzle with olive oil and garlic herb seasoning and toss to combine. Add the potatoes to the baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven to 275° F.
Meanwhile, place the salmon on a plate or cutting board and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Melt the butter in a small bowl, then add the garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice and whisk to combine.
Once the potatoes are done, push them to the edges of the baking sheet and place the salmon in the middle. Brush or pour the lemon butter mixture over the salmon, then place the baking sheet back into the oven.
Roast the salmon for 20-30 minutes, depending on the thickness of your salmon.
Garnish with fresh parsley and additional salt and pepper. Enjoy!
