Spiced Salmon with Roasted Sweet Potato and Coconut Lime Dressing

A vibrant and flavorful dish combining juicy salmon, sweet roasted potatoes, and a refreshing coconut lime dressing.

Ingredients:

  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • For the dressing:
    • 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
    • 1/4 cup lime juice
    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
    • 1 tablespoon honey
    • 1 clove garlic, minced

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss sweet potatoes with olive oil, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly browned.
  2. While the sweet potatoes are roasting, place salmon fillets on a lightly greased baking sheet. Season with salt and black pepper.
  3. Bake salmon alongside the sweet potatoes for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through.
  4. Meanwhile, whisk together all dressing ingredients in a small bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  5. Serve roasted salmon over the sweet potatoes, drizzled with the coconut lime dressing. Garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs, if desired.
