  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 lemons (1 for juice, 1 for slices)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 4 medium potatoes (about 2 lbs)
  • 1 lb broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Optionally, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the potatoes: Wash and cut them into small cubes. Toss with olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika in a large bowl.
  3. Roast the potatoes: Spread them on one side of the prepared baking sheet and bake for 25 minutes, stirring halfway until golden brown.
  4. Make lemon butter sauce: Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Stir in juice from one lemon; season with salt and pepper.
  5. Prepare salmon: Season fillets with salt and pepper. After 15 minutes of roasting the potatoes, push them aside on the baking sheet to create space for the salmon.
  6. Add toppings: Drizzle lemon butter sauce over salmon fillets and add lemon slices on top. Place broccoli florets on the other side of the baking sheet; drizzle with olive oil and season.
  7. Roast everything together: Return to oven for an additional 15-20 minutes until salmon is cooked through and broccoli is tender.
  8. Let rest before serving; garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
