Step-by-Step Instructions for Lemon Butter Salmon
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until fully coated. Spread evenly on a baking sheet.
- Roast the potatoes for about 20 minutes until golden brown and tender.
- Toss broccoli florets in remaining olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and add to baking sheet after the potatoes roast for 20 minutes. Roast for an additional 15-20 minutes.
- Melt 1/4 cup of unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons of lemon juice along with salt and pepper to create the lemon butter sauce.
- Add salmon fillets skin-side down to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until flaky.
- Plate the crispy potatoes and roasted broccoli, top with salmon fillets, drizzle lemon butter sauce, and garnish with lemon slices and parsley.
