Pan Roasted Faroe Island Salmon (gf) Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Potatoes

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wash and cut the baby potatoes in half. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for about 25-30 minutes or until golden brown and tender.

2. 2

   Prepare the Asparagus

   While the potatoes are roasting, wash the asparagus and trim the tough ends. Toss them in a bit of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Salmon

   In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a tablespoon of olive oil. Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper. Place the salmon skin-side down in the skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the salmon is cooked to your preference.

4. 4

   Sauté the Asparagus

   In the last few minutes of the salmon's cooking time, add the asparagus to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender.

5. 5

   Make the Caper Beurre Blanc

   In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add capers and lemon juice, stirring until the sauce is smooth and warmed through. Be careful not to let it boil.

6. 6

   Plate and Serve

   On each plate, serve a portion of roasted potatoes and asparagus. Place the salmon on top and drizzle with the caper beurre blanc. Enjoy your meal!
