Recipe
Kelp Pesto Norwegian Salmon with Lemony Dill Potatoes
By Holistic Nutritionist Alicia Spangenberger
total time: 40 minutes
servings: 3
Ingredients:
2 cups gold potatoes, sliced in medallions
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tsp dijon mustard
1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped,
juice of 1 lemon
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp salt
2 tsp pepper
Fresh Norwegian Skinless Salmon fillet, cut into 3 eight ounce portions
1 tsp olive oil
6 tbsp Kelp Pesto
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit
Rinse and cut your potatoes into medallions. In a small mixing bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, dijon mustard, dill, lemon juice, garlic, 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp pepper. Whisk to combine.
Spread potatoes out over a baking sheet and pour the lemon dill mixture, coating all of the potatoes. Bake on 400 degrees for approx. 30 minutes or until crispy and golden.
In a cast iron pan, heat up 1 tsp olive oil on medium/high heat. Season both sides of your salmon generously with salt and pepper. Sear on each side for 2 minutes. Once you’ve flipped the salmon over once, coat 2 tbsp of pesto evenly over the top of each portion. Add the cast iron pan to the oven pesto side up for 2-3 minutes.
Remove salmon and potatoes from oven and plate. Garnish with lemon and fresh dill. Enjoy!
