Garlic Butter Baked Salmon
Garlic butter smothered salmon is a given. It’s possibly one of the most amazing, delicious ways to eat a juicy piece of salmon and gets cooked twice a week in this house. It’s been a while since we gave you salmon and it’s time. Especially with Good Friday around the corner!
Salmon recipes in all forms are found in abundance on this blog of mine:
What you will love the most about this Salmon recipe is that you can prepare it all on just the one sheet pan. Soft, juicy and tender salmon on the inside with charred crisp edges, a delicious restaurant-quality dinner! Plus an incredible garlic butter sauce inspired by this Garlic Butter Shrimp Scampi!
How To Cook Garlic Butter Salmon In The Oven With Potatoes and Asparagus
This really is an incredibly easy recipe with only 4 main steps:
- Bake your potatoes first as salmon needs less time in the oven. This way you’re guaranteed the potatoes will be cooked through when it’s all finished. I used fingerling potatoes in this recipe because we LOVE the flavour of them! You an also use Yukon golds or halved baby potatoes.
- Once your potatoes are done, push them to the side and pile on your asparagus and salmon pieces.
- Pour on all of your flavours.
- Prepare an amazing garlic butter sauce with a hint of white wine (optional) and lemon juice.
The best part is that your sides get baked right along side your main! Just like this Sheet Pan Lemon Parmesan Garlic Chicken & Veggies OR this Easy Sheet Pan Chicken Cordon Bleu & Dijon Cream Sauce!
How Long to Bake Salmon
Salmon only needs 8-10 minutes cooking time in a hot, preheated oven (400°F or 200°C). I broil/grill ours in the last 2 minutes of cook time to get those crispy, golden charred edges.
What is a good wine with this salmon recipe?
I love a chilled glass of white wine with my salmon. We enjoyed a glass or two of chilled Moscato with this! If you’re not a fan of sweet wines, try a good Pinot Gris or Sav Blanc.
Tip: Chill your wine glasses in the freezer for about 30 minutes to keep your wine cool!
