Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Adjust an oven rack to the top position. Wash and dry all produce. Cut the potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Zest the lemon, then quarter it.
- On a baking sheet, toss the potato wedges with a generous drizzle of olive oil, half of the fry seasoning, salt and pepper. Spread them in a single layer on one side of the sheet. Roast on the top rack for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Add the green beans to the empty side of the sheet, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Return the sheet to the top rack and roast until the potatoes are golden and tender and the green beans are browned, about 12-15 minutes more. Once done, toss the green beans with lemon zest to taste.
- While the vegetables roast, pat the salmon dry with paper towels. Season the flesh side with the remaining fry seasoning, salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Place the salmon skin-side down and cook until the skin is crispy and golden, 5-7 minutes. Flip and cook until the salmon is opaque and cooked through, 1-2 minutes more. Transfer the salmon to a plate and wipe out the pan.
- Return the pan to medium heat. Add the honey Dijon dressing, 2 tablespoons of water and a squeeze of lemon juice. Simmer, stirring, until the sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the butter until melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Divide the salmon, potato wedges and green beans among plates. Spoon the sauce over the salmon. Serve with the remaining lemon wedges on the side.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispy salmon skin, make sure the pan is hot before adding the fish and avoid moving it too soon.
If you prefer your green beans more tender, roast them for the full 15 minutes.
Leftover sauce can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
