Ingredients:
- 8oz salmon fillet – divided into two 4 oz portions
- 2 lemons
- A handful of cherry tomatoes OR 1 small tomato, diced
- 2-3 small yellow potatoes, cubed
- 8 oz of fresh spinach OR frozen cut leaf spinach
- 1 tbsp of garlic powder
- 1 tsp of paprika
- 1 tsp of ground ginger
- 1 tsp of dried parsley OR fresh parsley
- 1 tsp of ground black pepper
- Pine of salt
- 2 tbsp of olive oil – divided into two 1 tbsp portions
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425 F.
- In a large mixing bowl, add your cubed potatoes, 1 tbsp of olive oil, a pinch of salt, a few cracks of fresh ground black pepper. Toss this together.
- Spread the potatoes out on a sheet pan in an even layer. Move the potatoes over to one side of the sheet pan, reserving the other half for the salmon pouch.
- Place the potatoes in the oven and set a timer for 10 minutes.
- While the potatoes are cooking, prepare your salmon pouch by starting with the seasoning mix.
- Add the garlic powder, paprika, ginger, ground pepper, parsley, and salt into a bowl. Squeeze in the juice from half a lemon, the remaining olive oil, and mix. Set this aside.
- Take a large piece of aluminum foil and create a bed with the spinach.
- Lay the salmon filets on top of the spinach.
- Add the cherry tomatoes or diced tomatoes.
- Lay the lemon slices on top. Spread the spice mixture over the salmon pieces.
- Fold up the foil to create a pouch. Make sure to seal the pouch well to prevent steam from escaping.
- Once the timer has gone off, take the potatoes out and give them a flip.
- Place the salmon pouch on the other side of the sheet pan. Place the pan in the oven and set a timer for 15 minutes.
- Once the timer has gone off, take the pan out of the oven and let it sit for 3-5 minutes.
- Plate and enjoy!
