For the Salmon
  • 4 fillets Salmon fresh, skin-on
  • 2 tablespoons Lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • 2 tablespoons Butter unsalted
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
For the Potatoes
  • 1 pound Baby potatoes small, waxy
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon Rosemary fresh or dried
For the Broccoli
  • 2 cups Broccoli florets fresh
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Pepper

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F.
  2. Prepare the crispy potatoes by cutting them into even chunks. Toss these in olive oil, salt, and pepper until well-coated.
  3. Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet, making sure they have space to crisp up.
Cooking Potatoes
  1. Roast the potatoes in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender and golden brown.
  2. Give them a gentle stir halfway through to ensure even crispiness.
Cooking Salmon
  1. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper while the potatoes roast.
  2. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, then add minced garlic once it's bubbly. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Add freshly squeezed lemon juice to the melted butter mixture and stir well.
  4. Sear the seasoned salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet for about 4-5 minutes until crispy and golden.
  5. Flip carefully and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
Cooking Broccoli
  1. Steam or sauté broccoli florets in a separate pan while your salmon finishes cooking, about 5-7 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
Serving
  1. Serve everything together on a plate! Place your crispy potatoes alongside the vibrant broccoli, topped with that luscious lemon butter sauce drizzled over the salmon.
