Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

½ pound baby red and yellow potatoes, or to taste
1 cup fresh green beans, trimmed, or to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 (6 ounce) salmon fillets
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 sprig chopped fresh dill
½ lemon, sliced
½ lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
⅓ teaspoon coarse salt
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 ½ tablespoons capers, roughly chopped
1 lemon, juiced
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Place a steamer insert into a saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil. Add potatoes and green beans, cover, and steam until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain.
  • Brush the shiny side of 2 large pieces of aluminum foil with 1 teaspoon olive oil each. Place salmon skin-side down in the center. Brush remaining olive oil and garlic over salmon. Sprinkle dill on top. Divide lemon slices over salmon; squeeze 1/2 lemon on top. Season with 1/2 teaspoon pepper and 1/3 teaspoon salt.
  • Cover salmon with 2 pieces of aluminum foil, shiny-side down. Roll aluminum foil inwards on all sides to create a pouch. Transfer pouches to a baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until salmon flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Mix mayonnaise and capers together in a small bowl to make a tartar sauce. Stir in juice from 1 lemon, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  • Serve steamed potatoes, green beans, and tartar sauce alongside salmon.

This recipe was a disaster. The salmon was dry and the sauce was too salty.

The salmon was a bit overcooked, but the lemon-dill sauce was delicious.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with more lemon and dill.

I've never been a big fan of salmon, but this recipe changed my mind. The lemon-dill sauce was amazing and really brought out the flavor of the fish.

I followed the recipe exactly and the salmon turned out great. The lemon-dill sauce was a bit too tart for my taste, but overall this was a very good dish.
