Made entirely on one sheet pan and packed FULL of incredible Greek flavors, this Greek salmon and fingerling potatoes will quickly become a regular part of the dinner rotation!
Let’s keep the trend of easy PEASY dinners going strong this week! And while we’re at it, let’s throw some spring into the mix.
Spring = the addition of asparagus. Catch me throwing that green stuff in literally anything I can EVERY year this time of the year.
It all works out in the case of this Greek salmon. I’m talking melt-in-your-mouth marinated roast salmon, super crispy roast fingerling potatoes, tender little asparagus spears, tons of little clumps of tangy feta…(!!!)
All piled on one sheet pan. That’s ONE pan you will be washing tonight, yes you heard correctly.
Probably the most time-consuming part of this Greek salmon is marinating the fish beforehand. A NECESSARY step to get that buttery, melt-in-your-mouth texture you love about salmon. It’s just a simple Greek-style marinade of yogurt, lemon juice olive oil, garlic, + spices. So, so, SO good.
While the salmon marinates, we’re going to roast the fingerling potatoes until they’re nice and crispy. Then salmon + asparagus + feta gets piled on the same sheet pan and roasted for about 10-15 until the asparagus is tender and the salmon reaches your desired doneness.
And I do believe it’s about high time to dive into some Greek salmon PERFECTION! ??
More feta on top of your own personal bowl? It’s like you’re speaking my love language.
