Saumon au beurre à l’ail cuit au four

Ingrédients

• 1 pound fingerling potatoes (or Yukon golds or halved white/red baby potatoes, halved)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt (divided)
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper (cracked, divided)
• 4 skinless salmon fillets
• 2 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic (divided)
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped )
• 1/3 cup lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter (melted )
• 3 asparagus (bunches, 18 spears, woody ends removed)
• 2 tablespoons dry white wine (substitute with 1/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth)
• 1 lemon (sliced to garnish)

Préparation

1. 1

   Heat oven to 400°F | 200°C. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss together potatoes with the oil, 1/2 tablespoon of garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Spread out in an even layer and roast for 15 minutes until they're just starting to soften and brown.

2. 2

   Push potatoes to one side of the sheet pan and arrange salmon down the centre. Rub salmon evenly with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the minced garlic and 2 tablespoons of parsley. Add the asparagus to the other side of the pan.

3. 3

   Combine 1/4 cup of lemon juice and 1/4 cup of the melted butter together and pour the mixture over the salmon and asparagus. Season everything with the remaining salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Return to oven and continue baking until the potatoes are golden and fork-tender and the salmon is opaque throughout, (about 10 minutes). Optional: broil in the last 2 minutes for charred edges.

5. 5

   Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the remaining butter, garlic and lemon juice with the wine (or chicken stock). Serve with the salmon, veggies and lemon slices!
