0/0 done

Salmon fillets roasted with lemon, garlic, and dill next to browned Brussels sprouts — one pan, about 30 minutes.

Ingredients
  • 900 g salmon fillets (about 6 portions)
  • 700 g Brussels sprouts, halved
  • 45 g olive oil
  • 2 lemons — zest and juice of one, the other in wedges
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 6 g sea salt
  • Black pepper
  • Fresh dill, optional

Click an ingredient once it's in the bowl.

Method
  1. Heat the oven to 425°F. Toss the sprouts with two-thirds of the oil and half the salt; roast cut side down 15 minutes — flat side against hot metal is what browns them.
  2. Rub the salmon with the remaining oil, the lemon zest, garlic, salt, and pepper.
  3. Push the sprouts to one side, add the salmon to the pan, and roast 10-12 minutes until the fish is just opaque and reads about 125°F in the center — it keeps cooking off the heat.
  4. Finish with lemon juice and dill, with lemon wedges at the table.
Notes
  • Buy wild-caught when it looks good; frozen wild salmon is a freezer staple that makes this a no-plan dinner.
