Ingredients
- 4 (6 oz each), skin-on salmon fillets
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp sriracha
- 1, zested and juiced lemon
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved potatoes
- 3 cloves, minced garlic
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss halved baby potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 2 minced garlic cloves; spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes until golden and crisp at the edges.

- Step 3: Bake salmon at 425°F for 12-14 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 125°F and the glaze bubbles and turns glossy.
- Step 4: Drizzle remaining glaze over roasted potatoes, sprinkle with remaining 1 minced garlic clove and 1/2 tsp dried thyme, and return to oven for 2 minutes to toast the garlic.
