Spiced Salmon with Roasted Sweet Potato & Pistachio Gremolata

A vibrant and flavorful dish featuring perfectly spiced salmon atop roasted sweet potatoes, topped with a crunchy pistachio gremolata.

Ingredients:

  • 4 Salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 Large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Cumin
  • 1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 1/4 cup Pistachios, roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup Fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1 Garlic clove, minced

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss sweet potato cubes with olive oil, paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.

  4. Season salmon fillets with salt and black pepper.
  5. Place salmon on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky.
