Salmon with Roasted Mustard Potatoes

Tonight marks the first night of being upperclassmen in college. Yoykes. In honor of this right of passage we are making salmon, that my roommates’ dad caught, for dinner. Just like freshman year when we were the weirdos dressing salmon with olive oil and garlic at our dorm desks and gingerly carrying it over to the communal kitchen to hopefully find a clean pan or tray and not be bothered while we cooked and enjoyed our feast… Except for now we have a super cute and completely equipped kitchen. It’s going to be a good year.

 

  • 1 lb baby potatoes
  • 3 sprigs rosemary
  • 5 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 a lemon
  • 3 tbsp dijon mustard
  • few grinds black pepper
  • sea salt
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic
  • 1 thick, 8 in slice of salmon
  1. cut lemon into slices then into half-moons
  2. lay lemons flat in the pan then pour potatoes over
  3. keep garlic in skin and wedge in between potatoes, place rosemary in as well
  4. drizzle olive oil, balsamic, mustard, pepper and salt over the top
  5. bake at 300° F  for 20 minutes then remove and stir around, poke potatoes with a knife of fork
  6. bake for 20 more minutes then remove and cut potatoes in half, turn heat up to 350° F
  7. cut salmon in half and place it in the middle of the potatoes and bake 25-30 minutes or until salmon is cooked
