Baked Salmon with Roasted Potatoes

Ingredients

• 4 6-oz salmon fillets, skin removed
• 2 lbs potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch wedges
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 lemon, sliced into 4 wedges

Method

1. 1Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. 2Line a large baking tray with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
3. 3Toss the potato wedges with 1 tbsp of olive oil, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper on the prepared tray, spreading them out in a single layer.
4. 4Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they start to brown.
5. 5Place the salmon fillets on a separate baking tray lined with parchment paper, drizzling with the remaining 1 tbsp of olive oil.
6. 6Bake the salmon in the oven for 12-15 minutes, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).
7. 7Remove both the potatoes and salmon from the oven, serving the fish atop the roasted potatoes with a squeeze of lemon juice and a sprinkle of chopped fresh herbs, if desired.
8. 8Let the salmon rest for 2-3 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
9. 9Serve the baked salmon and roasted potatoes hot, garnished with additional lemon wedges on the side.
