Ingredients
  

For the Salmon and Potatoes
  • 2 fillets salmon Fresh salmon provides rich flavor and healthy omega-3s.
  • 2 tbsp olive oil For cooking and drizzling for flavor.
  • 1 lb baby potatoes Halved for roasting.
For the Creamed Greens
  • 2 cups kale or spinach Chopped and packed with nutrients.
  • 1 cup heavy cream Makes the sauce luscious and creamy.
  • 2 cloves garlic Minced.
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice Adds brightness to the dish.
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard Adds depth of flavor.
  • Fresh herbs for garnish

Equipment

  • Skillet
  • Oven
  • baking sheet
  • Saucepan

Method
 

  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Step 2: Toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden and tender.
  3. Step 3: While the potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then place them skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is cooked through.
  4. Step 4: In a separate saucepan, sauté the minced garlic in a little olive oil until fragrant. Add the chopped greens and cook until wilted, which should only take a couple of minutes.
  5. Step 5: Stir in the heavy cream, lemon juice, and Dijon mustard. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Step 6: To serve, place the roasted potatoes in a bowl, top with the creamed greens, and add the crispy salmon. If you're feeling fancy, garnish with fresh herbs!

Notes

If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for about 2-3 days. For best results, reheat gently in the oven to keep the salmon nice and crispy.
