Ingredients
Scale
- 1 salmon fillet
- 1 tsp olive oil or butter
- 1 garlic clove, smashed
- Salt, pepper, paprika, Italian seasoning (to taste)
- 1 medium potato, peeled and cubed
- 1 tsp butter or olive oil
- 1 cup baby carrots
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- Salt, pepper, chili flakes (optional)
- 1 tsp olive oil or butter
Instructions
- Boil cubed potatoes in salted water until tender (about 10 minutes). Drain them and then sauté in butter or olive oil until golden brown. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Season your salmon fillet with salt, pepper, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the smashed garlic clove and place the salmon skin-side down. Sear for about 4-5 minutes until crispy. Flip it over gently and cook for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
- In a separate pot or steamer basket, add baby carrots and broccoli florets. Steam them until fork-tender (about 5-7 minutes). If roasting instead, toss them on an oven-safe tray with olive oil, salt, and optional chili flakes before placing in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 10-12 minutes.
- On a plate, arrange your crispy potatoes alongside the flavorful salmon. Add bright steamed carrots and roasted broccoli on the side. Serve hot and enjoy your nutritious meal!
