Steps:
- If you're making the potatoes, start by heating the oven to 450 degrees F. If not, skip to step 5.
- Put the halved potatoes in a large mixing bowl. Season with kosher salt, black pepper, 1 teaspoon fresh thyme and 1 teaspoon dry rosemary. Add 2 teaspoons minced garlic and 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil. Toss to make sure the potatoes are well coated.
- Arrange the potatoes, cut side down, on a sheetpan or baking dish. Roast in the heated oven for about 25 minutes.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven and push the potatoes to one side of your pan to make room for the salmon.
- Turn the oven heat down to 250 degrees F. Wait for the heat to lower to this point.
- Brush the bottom of the sheet pan where you made room for the salmon with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Season the salmon with kosher salt on both sides and put it in the pan next to the potatoes.
- Drizzle about 3 to 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil over the salmon fillet. Spread the remaining fresh garlic on top (I use the back of a spoon to spread the garlic evenly all over the fish fillet). Sprinkle the remaining rosemary and fresh thyme.
- Roast the salmon in the 250 degree F heated oven for 15-18 minutes for medium rare, or up to 25 minutes for medium, depending on thickness of fish (insert a fork in the thickest part of the salmon, it should meet no resistance and should flake easily). To be sure, insert an instant read thermometer in the thickest part of the fish, it is ready when the internal temperature registers 125 degrees F for a medium-cooked salmon.
- Squeeze some fresh lemon juice on top of the salmon. Serve immediately.

Steps:

- Stir together the panko, dill, lemon zest and 1 tablespoon of the melted butter in a medium bowl; set aside.

Repeat, topping with the remaining potatoes, feta and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Combine the broth and 1 tablespoon of the melted butter in a small bowl and pour over the potatoes. Cover with foil and bake until the potatoes are just softened, 40 to 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut the salmon into 2- to 3-inch pieces. Toss the salmon with the lemon juice and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Remove the potatoes from the oven and uncover. Increase the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the salmon on the potatoes and sprinkle with the panko mixture. Bake, uncovered, until the salmon is cooked through and the panko is golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Garnish with dill sprigs.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Toss the leeks in a roasting pan with 1/3 cup olive oil; season with salt. Roast until slightly golden, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the salmon in another shallow pan and rub with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside to come to room temperature.
- When the leeks are done, reduce the oven temperature to 275 degrees F. Season the salmon with salt, place over the leeks and brush with the oil in the pan. Roast until firm, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the potatoes in a pot of boiling salted water until fork-tender, about 10 minutes; drain.
- Pulse the shallot in a food processor until minced. Add the butter, chives, tarragon, parsley, lemon juice, and salt to taste and pulse until combined.
- Remove the salmon from the oven and top with half of the herb butter; top the potatoes with the rest. Slice the salmon, season with salt and serve with the leeks and potatoes.
CITRUSY ROASTED SALMON AND POTATOES
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.

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.
MOM'S SALMON AND POTATO BAKE
During World War II when meat was scarce, my mother used to feed her large family casseroles using whatever meat or fish was available. My favorite is a type of baked casserole with salmon and potato which not only tasted great, but one which satisfied her family of seven kids.

Tips:
- Choose the right salmon. Look for wild-caught salmon that is fresh or frozen. Avoid farmed salmon, as it is often lower in quality and may contain contaminants.
- Use a sharp knife to score the salmon. This will help the salmon to cook evenly and prevent it from curling up.
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as dill, thyme, or rosemary.
- Place the salmon on a bed of thinly sliced potatoes. This will help to keep the salmon moist and prevent it from sticking to the pan.
- Cover the salmon tightly with foil. This will help to create a moist cooking environment.
- Bake the salmon at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes. The salmon is done when it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
- Serve the salmon immediately. Salmon is best served hot, with a side of roasted vegetables or rice.
Conclusion:
Salmon with Potato Scales is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The salmon is cooked to perfection in a moist and flavorful cooking environment, and the potato scales add a crispy and delicious texture. This dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
