Method

For the Salmon

  1. 1

    Prepare the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  2. 2

    Season the Salmon

    Rub the salmon fillets with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Roast the Salmon

    Place the seasoned salmon fillets on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the salmon from the oven and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

For the Garlic Mashed Potatoes

  1. 5

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the russet potatoes into large chunks.

  2. 6

    Boil the Potatoes

    Place the chopped potatoes and garlic cloves in a large pot, cover with cold water, and add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15-20 minutes.

  3. 7

    Mash the Potatoes

    Drain the potatoes and garlic, then return them to the pot. Add butter, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash until smooth and creamy.

  4. 8

    Serve

    Spoon the garlic mashed potatoes onto plates alongside the roasted salmon.

For the Meunière Sauce

  1. 9

    Prepare the Butter

    In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat until it begins to brown slightly.

  2. 10

    Add Lemon Juice and Parsley

    Remove from heat, then stir in the lemon juice and chopped fresh parsley.

  3. 11

    Serve

    Drizzle the Meunière sauce over the roasted salmon fillets before serving.
