Dill Roasted Salmon and New Potato Casserole is a delightful dish that combines the freshness of salmon with the heartiness of potatoes, perfect for a comforting family dinner.


Ingredients

4
  • 4 salmon fillets
  • 1 lb new potatoes, halved
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

Instructions

1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2

In a large bowl, toss the halved new potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

3

Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, until they start to soften.

4

While the potatoes are roasting, prepare the salmon by mixing the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, chopped dill, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.

5

After 20 minutes, remove the potatoes from the oven and push them to one side of the baking sheet.

6

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the other side of the baking sheet.

7

Sprinkle the salmon with the dill mixture and top with crumbled feta cheese and cherry tomatoes.

8

Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

9

Serve hot, garnished with extra dill if desired.

Kitchen Tools

  • Baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl
  • Measuring spoons
  • Spatula

Chef's Tips

For extra flavor, marinate the salmon for 30 minutes before roasting.
Make sure not to overcrowd the baking sheet to ensure even cooking.
You can substitute fresh dill with dried dill, but reduce the amount to about one teaspoon.

Troubleshooting

If the salmon is sticking to the baking sheet, ensure the pan is well greased or use parchment paper.
If the potatoes are not tender after the initial roasting time, give them a few more minutes before adding the salmon.

Recipe Variations

Add spinach to the dish for extra nutrients.
Use other types of fish such as trout or cod instead of salmon.

Healthy Alternatives

Use Greek yogurt instead of feta for a lower-calorie option.
Replace olive oil with avocado oil for a different flavor profile.

Serving Suggestions

Serve with a side salad for added freshness.
Pair with steamed green vegetables like broccoli or asparagus.
