Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss 1 lb baby potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp chopped rosemary, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy.
  2. Step 2: Season the salmon fillets with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper on both sides. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Step 3: Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily.
  4. Step 4: While the salmon cooks, whisk together 1 lemon zest, 1 lemon juice, 2 tbsp chopped dill, and 1 tbsp chopped chives in a small bowl.
  5. Step 5: Remove the salmon from the skillet and let rest for 2 minutes. Drizzle the lemon-dill sauce over the salmon and serve with the roasted potatoes.
