Lemon Butter Salmon with Crispy Potatoes and Broccoli: An Amazing Ultimate Recipe

Ingredients

– 4 salmon fillets (about 6 ounces each)
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
– 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 2 cups broccoli florets
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
– Juice of 1 lemon
– Zest of 1 lemon
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Making Lemon Butter Salmon with Crispy Potatoes and Broccoli is as enjoyable as it is simple. Just follow these steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures even cooking for the salmon and potatoes.

2. Prepare Potatoes: In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and pepper. Ensure they are evenly coated.

3. Roast Potatoes: Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

4. Sear Salmon: While the potatoes are roasting, heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a touch of olive oil and sear the salmon fillets, skin-side down, for about 3-4 minutes, until crispy.

5. Flip Salmon: Carefully flip the salmon fillets over, and pour the lemon sauce (made with melted butter, lemon juice, and zest) over them.

6. Combine and Continue Roasting: After the potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes, add the salmon to the baking sheet with the potatoes. Return the tray to the oven and roast for another 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through.

7. Steam Broccoli: While the salmon and potatoes are finishing, steam the broccoli until bright green and tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.

8. Serve: Remove the salmon and potatoes from the oven. Plate them alongside the broccoli, drizzling any remaining lemon butter sauce over everything. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish.
