Description
A delicious and healthy dish featuring salmon fillets cooked in a lemon butter sauce, served with crispy potatoes and roasted broccoli.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 lemon (zested and juiced)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- 4 medium potatoes, diced
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on the baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
- On the same sheet, add the broccoli florets, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast alongside the potatoes for 15-20 minutes until tender.
- While the vegetables are roasting, heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the salmon fillets, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, until cooked through.
- Once the salmon is done, squeeze the lemon juice and add zest to the skillet. Stir to create a quick lemon butter sauce.
- Plate the salmon fillets with crispy potatoes and roasted broccoli. Drizzle the lemon butter sauce over the salmon and garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
- Ensure the salmon is fresh for the best flavor.
- You can substitute the broccoli with other vegetables like asparagus or green beans.
- Adjust the seasoning according to your taste preferences.
