Ingredients

Vegetables and Protein

  • 1 1/2 lbs (650-700g) baby potatoes, halved
  • 4 BAP certified salmon filets
  • 1 pint baby tomatoes, halved and seasoned with a big pinch of salt
  • 1 lemon, sliced

Sauce and Seasonings

  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano
  • 3 garlic cloves, pressed (or 1 tbsp garlic powder)
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Toppings

  • 1 cup cubed or crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • Tzatziki (use an easy Greek tzatziki recipe)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for roasting the ingredients evenly.
  2. Make the Lemon Garlic Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, dried oregano, pressed garlic cloves, salt, and pepper until well combined. Set this flavorful sauce aside for later use.
  3. Roast the Potatoes: Spread the halved baby potatoes on a large sheet pan. Drizzle with half of the lemon garlic sauce and toss to coat evenly. Place the sheet pan in the oven and roast the potatoes for 20 minutes until they start to soften and develop a golden crust.
  4. Add Tomatoes and Salmon: After 20 minutes, remove the sheet pan from the oven. Add the halved tomatoes, gently tossing them with the potatoes. Nestle the salmon filets between the potatoes and tomatoes on the pan. Drizzle the remaining lemon garlic sauce evenly over the salmon filets. Arrange the lemon slices both on top of the salmon and scattered among the potatoes and tomatoes.
  5. Finish Roasting: Return the sheet pan to the oven and roast everything together for an additional 8–12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through to your preferred doneness and flakes easily with a fork.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Remove the pan from the oven and top the salmon and vegetables with crumbled or cubed feta cheese, chopped fresh dill, and parsley. Serve immediately with a side of tzatziki sauce for dipping or drizzling.

Notes

  • If you prefer, you can substitute garlic powder for fresh garlic cloves for convenience.
  • Ensure salmon filets are of uniform thickness for even cooking.
  • For extra crispiness, you can broil the salmon for 1-2 minutes at the end but watch closely to prevent burning.
  • The tzatziki can be store-bought or homemade depending on your preference.
  • Make sure to halve baby potatoes evenly to ensure uniform roasting.
