Flavorful Salmon Recipe

Oh my goodness y'all! If you're like me - trying out new recipes that are easy, quick, and delicious - you are going to love this recipe. I love it because it's something that I am always comfortable making. Can be dressed up with it's sides (adding other veggies such as asparagus) or dressed down with a simple potato. It's extremely healthy, so I don't feel bad eating it or like I'm breaking my diet doing so. Isn't too expensive, because we all love that. And can be made whenever.

Ingredients:

FOR THE POTATOES

• 1 Pound of Potatoes (I use the petite golden)

• 2 Tbsp. of Olive Oil

• 1/2 Tsp. of Garlic Salt

• 1/2 Tsp. of Salt

FOR THE SALMON

• 2 Tsp. of Pepper

• 2 Tsp. of Paprika

• 2 Tsp. of Onion Powder

• 1 Tsp. of Garlic Salt

• 1 Tsp. of Salt

• 10 (Skin-on) Salmon Filets

• 5 Tbsp. of Butter, Melted

• 4 Lemons

• 2 Tbsp. of Fresh Dill, Chopped

• 2 Tbsp. of Fresh Parsely, Chopped

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.

2. In a medium sized bowl, toss together your potatoes (cut in half) with the olive oil, garlic salt, and salt. And arrange them on one half of a baking tray. I use a non-stick sheet pan, but you can also make this on one lined with foil.

3. Put them in the oven to cook for about 10 minutes, flip, and then continue to cook for another 10 minutes. Until golden brown or fork tender.

4. As they cook, prepare the salmon. First, mix together the pepper, paprika, onion powder, garlic salt, and salt in a small bowl. Then melt the butter in a separate small bowl.

5. And then I like to cut a 1-inch-long slice in the flesh part of the salmon about half the way down in each fillet to make sure all of those spices and butter get to sink in during cooking.

6. By now, the potatoes should be done, so you'll want to take out the pan to place the slamon on the other end of the sheet, drizzle some butter on each fillet (and of course some on the potatoes), sprinkle on some seasoning, and finish them off with juices from two of the lemons.

7. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the salmon flakes with a fork.

8. Cut the remaining 2 lemons into fours to serve on the side and top the fillets off with the dill and parsley.

9. And enjoy!
