Easy Peasy Salmon with Roast Potatoes and Spinach

Want something super simple for dinner, then this is the answer. I make this (or a variation on this) about once a week!

Ingredients:

Salmon fillet

1 Potato

2-3 small tomatoes.

Rosemary (fresh is better, but dried works as well)

1/2 tsp garlic powder

3 cups fresh spinach

1 tsp olive oil

1 tsp lemon juice

cracked pepper to taste

Peel and cube potato, par boil. (Boil on high for about 5-10 mins... until potato just starts to become tender)



In an oiled roaster, place salmon fillet, tomatoes and potatoes, and rosemary. Cover salmon and tomatoes with 1 tbsp Balsamic Vinegar. Sprinkle everything with garlic powder. Roast in the oven at 350 F until salmon starts to flake apart and potatoes start to crisp and turn golden. Occassionally the potatoes will need extra time, remove the salmon and tomatoes, keep them warm at the back of the stove... turn the oven on to broil/grill and watch as the potatoes gain some colour. As soon as they are a golden brown (or perhaps even darker, like I prefer) remove from the oven.

 As you wait for the fish and veg to be ready, wash spinach and steam in the microwave. As soon as they are wilted (about 45 sec. should do it) remove and toss with a little olive oil, lemon and pepper.

Serve.  I often add extra balsamic vinegar or balsamic glaze to the salmon just before serving. Enjoy!
