SHEET-PAN HARISSA SALMON WITH POTATOES AND CITRUS



Sheet-Pan Harissa Salmon With Potatoes and Citrus image

In this 30-minute recipe, harissa, ginger and orange are combined to create a vibrant, spicy marinade for rich salmon fillets. The potatoes and red onion get a jump-start roasting, while the fish takes a quick dip in the marinade. Then the salmon is added to the sheet pan so everything finishes cooking together. This meal looks impressive right on the pan, so serve it from there and cut down on cleanup. You've got better things to do.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets, about 1- to 1½-inches thick
Kosher salt and black pepper
2 to 3 tablespoons mild or spicy harissa paste, depending on your preference
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 garlic clove, grated
1/2 teaspoon orange zest
1/4 cup orange juice (from about ½ orange)
1 pound small potatoes, such as baby red or fingerlings, cut in half lengthwise
1 small red onion, peeled, quartered and cut into ½-inch wedges
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped, both leaves and tender stems
3 tablespoons scallions, thinly sliced on an angle, both white and green parts
Flaky salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees. Lay salmon on a plate, and season with salt and pepper. In a shallow bowl, whisk together harissa, ginger, garlic, orange zest and juice. Spoon the mixture over the flesh and sides of the fish, and let marinate at room temperature.
  • Meanwhile, line a sheet pan with parchment paper (or use a nonstick sheet pan). In a large bowl, toss together the potatoes and onion with the olive oil, and season well with salt and pepper. Arrange them on the sheet pan in 1 layer, leaving 4 spaces for the salmon fillets to be added later. Roast until the potatoes are beginning to brown and are almost cooked through, about 20 minutes.
  • Add the salmon to the sheet pan skin-side down, and roast until the fish is opaque and cooked through and the potatoes are crisp, about 8 minutes more. Scatter cilantro and scallions over everything, and season with flaky salt.

CITRUSY ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES



Citrusy Roasted Salmon and Potatoes image

Citrus-dressed salmon roasted over potatoes is a quick, flavorful one-pan meal that is perfect for any night of the week. Skin-on Yukon Golds are thinly sliced, fanned out and generously drizzled with a citrus sauce to serve as the base for the meal. The salmon is placed directly on top of the potatoes after they're briefly roasted, the fish is drizzled with more sauce, then everything roasts together until the salmon is tender and the potatoes are perfectly cooked through and irresistibly tangy. Feel free to swap out the cilantro for any fresh herb you prefer, such as dill or parsley.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/3 cup fresh clementine or mandarin juice, plus 1 clementine or mandarin, sliced into ¼-inch-thick rounds, for garnish
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems
1 shallot, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, finely grated
2 large Yukon Gold potatoes (about 1 pound)
Kosher salt and black pepper
Red-pepper flakes, to taste
1 1/2 pounds skin-on salmon fillet (preferably 1 single center-cut piece)

Steps:

  • Set a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, clementine or mandarin juice, lime juice, cilantro, shallot and garlic; set aside citrus sauce.
  • Scrub the potatoes and slice them into ¼-inch-thick rounds. In a large (12-inch) cast-iron skillet (or similar oven-safe pan), fan out the potato rounds, overlapping them a little, to cover the surface of the skillet. Season well with salt (about 1 to 1½ teaspoons) and black pepper to taste. Sprinkle on a few red-pepper flakes. Stir the oil and citrus juice mixture to combine again, and spoon half of the sauce over the potatoes. Place the skillet in the oven and roast for 20 minutes, until the edges start to turn golden.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven, season the salmon well with salt (about 1½ teaspoons) and pepper to taste and place the salmon on top of the potatoes, skin side down. Sprinkle with a few more red-pepper flakes. Spoon the rest of the citrus sauce over the salmon and top the fish with the citrus slices. Place the skillet back in the oven and roast until the salmon is cooked through to your liking, 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon.
