Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each) dry with paper towels, then season both sides with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Toss 1 lb baby potatoes (halved) with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper in a large bowl until coated.
  3. Step 3: Spread potatoes in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes until golden.
  4. Step 4: Add 1 cup cherry tomatoes around potatoes, then place salmon fillets on top. Scatter 1 lemon (thinly sliced) and 1 tbsp fresh dill over the salmon.
  5. Step 5: Drizzle salmon with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, then sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper.
  6. Step 6: Bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon is opaque and potatoes are tender, checking with a fork for doneness.
