Units
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (juice of one lemon)
- 1/2 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 lb salmon filet
- 2 cups baby potatoes
- 2 cups green beans
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cut the baby potatoes in half. Microwave potatoes for 2-3 minutes, until fork-tender.
- Make Sauce: While potatoes heat, in a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon, honey, and spices.
- Assemble: Line a baking sheet with foil. Lay the salmon filet in the middle of the sheet. Add green beans and potatoes to the baking sheet.
- Drizzle and Bake: Drizzle the olive oil/spice mixture over the top of the salmon, green beans, and potatoes. You can toss the potatoes and green beans so they are evenly coated. Bake at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes.
- Broil and Serve: Broil for 3-5 minutes until the salmon is lightly browned.
Notes
- Salmon: You can use a salmon filet with or without skin.
- Potatoes: You can use any type of potato you like, but baby potatoes are recommended for their quick cooking time.
- Green Beans: You can use fresh or frozen green beans.
- Broiling: Keep a close eye on the salmon while broiling, as it can burn quickly.
- Serving: Serve this dish with a side salad or your favorite vegetables.
