Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, mix 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp lemon zest, 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to form an herb paste.
- Step 2: Toss 1 lb halved baby potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Spread potatoes evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
- Step 3: Meanwhile, place 4 salmon fillets skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking tray. Spread the herb paste evenly over the top of each fillet.
- Step 4: After potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes, add the tray with salmon to the oven and roast both salmon and potatoes for an additional 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily and potatoes are tender.
- Step 5: Remove from oven and serve salmon alongside the roasted garlic potatoes.
