Sheet Pan Salmon With Potatoes And Asparagus From The Food Charlatan Recipes

SHEET-PAN SALMON WITH POTATO HASH

Steps:

• Place a baking sheet in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450˚ F. Toss the potatoes, bell peppers and onion with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Spread on the hot pan and roast, stirring halfway through, until the potatoes are tender and browned in spots, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the capers, cornichons and parsley. Combine the yogurt in a bowl with the capers, cornichons and half the parsley. Stir in the lemon zest, 1 tablespoon lemon juice and a pinch of Old Bay; season with salt and pepper.
• Coat the salmon with the remaining 1 teaspoon each olive oil and lemon juice and 1 1/2 teaspoons Old Bay; season with salt. Stir the potato mixture and make space on the pan for the salmon fillets. Add the salmon to the pan and roast until the fish flakes easily with a fork, 7 to 10 minutes depending on the thickness.
• Divide the salmon and potatoes among plates and top with the yogurt sauce. Sprinkle with the remaining parsley.

FAMILY SHEET PAN SALMON DINNER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a rimmed sheet pan with foil.
• Trim one end of the lemon, then cut 4 thin rounds; reserve the rest.
• Put the potatoes on the prepared pan and toss them with the lemon rounds, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 2 tablespoons of the oil. Turn the potatoes cut-side down and push them towards one end of the sheet pan so that they occupy only about half the pan. Roast for 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the broccoli with 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons oil and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon paprika in a bowl. Rub the salmon lightly with the remaining tablespoon oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and the curry powder.
• After the potatoes have cooked 10 minutes, spread the broccoli in a single layer on top of them. Put the salmon fillets on the other half of the pan. Return to the oven and roast until the broccoli is crisp-tender and the salmon is just cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and immediately squeeze the juice from the reserved lemon over the salmon, broccoli and potatoes.

SHEET-PAN CAJUN SALMON

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Place salmon on a plate, skin side up. Using a sharp knife, make a cut into the skin about 1/8-inch deep, in 3 different places, making sure not to cut all the way through the flesh. In a medium bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons olive oil with the Cajun seasoning, paprika and 1 teaspoon salt. Pour over the salmon to coat it on both sides and set aside to marinate.
• To a rimmed sheet pan, add potatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Toss to coat and roast for about 15 minutes until tender. (Larger potatoes may take longer.)
• As potatoes roast, toss the asparagus with the garlic, the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste.
• Move the potatoes to one end of the pan and place salmon skin side up next to them. Add asparagus in an even layer to the other end of the pan, and roast everything together for 10 to 13 minutes, until the asparagus is tender and the salmon is cooked to taste. If you'd like the skin to be crispy, you can transfer the vegetables from the pan to a serving platter and pop the fish under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes. Serve hot.
