Garlic Butter-Roasted Salmon with Potatoes & Asparagus

 Garlic Butter-Roasted Salmon with Potatoes & Asparagus


Garlic Butter-Roasted Salmon with Potatoes & Asparagus is a flavorful, easy-to-make dish that brings together tender salmon, roasted potatoes, and fresh asparagus, all coated in a delicious garlic butter sauce. Here’s a recipe to guide you through this simple and satisfying meal.

Ingredients:

  • 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 8-10 small baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed and cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme or fresh thyme (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:

    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

  2. Prepare the Potatoes:

    • In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the potatoes out on the baking sheet in a single layer.
    • Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 15 minutes to give them a head start.

  3. Prepare the Garlic Butter:

    • In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, and thyme (if using). Stir well to combine.

  4. Prepare the Salmon and Asparagus:

    • While the potatoes roast, season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper on both sides.
    • Drizzle half of the garlic butter mixture over the top of the salmon fillets.
    • Place the trimmed asparagus on the same baking sheet as the potatoes, drizzle with a little olive oil, and season with salt and pepper.

  5. Roast the Salmon and Vegetables:

    • After the potatoes have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the potatoes to the sides of the sheet to create space in the center.
    • Place the salmon fillets in the center of the baking sheet, skin-side down if applicable.
    • Spoon the remaining garlic butter over the asparagus and salmon. Roast everything in the oven for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the potatoes are tender and golden.

  6. Serve:

    • Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Garnish the salmon and vegetables with fresh chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of citrus flavor.

This Garlic Butter-Roasted Salmon with Potatoes & Asparagus makes a perfect one-pan meal that’s bursting with flavor and nutrients. The buttery, garlicky sauce ties everything together, while the roasted potatoes and asparagus add texture and freshness to the dish. Enjoy!
