Description

A delightful dish featuring succulent salmon fillets, crispy potatoes, and vibrant broccoli tossed in a zesty lemon-butter sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 (6 oz) Salmon fillets, skin-on
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Lemon slices, for garnish
  • Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1.5 lbs Baby potatoes, halved
  • 3 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 lb Broccoli florets
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon zest (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Toss the halved baby potatoes in a bowl with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, and salt/pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet, cut side down.
  3. Bake the potatoes for 20-25 minutes until golden and crispy, flipping halfway through.
  4. Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Once the potatoes have about 10 minutes left, add the broccoli to the baking sheet.
  5. In a heavy skillet, melt butter over medium heat and stir in minced garlic.
  6. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper; place them in the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes, drizzling with lemon juice.
  7. Plate the dish with crispy potatoes, tender broccoli, and salmon. Garnish with lemon slices and chopped parsley.

Notes

For a crispier texture, consider using an air fryer for the potatoes. Prep the vegetables and season the salmon earlier for convenience.
