Baked Salmon with Rosemary Potatoes

Your mouth is watering isn't it? Mine is. This recipe is a food-gasam for your mouth. Not even kidding.

If your awesome and you have a large oven or even two ovens you can do these both at one time. I ended up doing them separately, but everything tasted so awesome. Now I will warn you you won't see to many salmon recipes up here, its expensive, but luckly my mom and I were able to get some for only $4.99lb. SCORE!

Lets start with the giant potato I got at a local grocery store. Yeah its bigger than my hand.

I cubed up that one potato, covered it in olive oil and a fresh piece of rosemary from a friends garden and tossed it in the oven for about forty minutes. Oh, my goodness, perfection.

Just remember to put a piece of foil down on your baking sheet before you put it in the oven!

So now for the salmon. Firstly I cut a small onion into pieces I put it on the baking sheet (on some foil) with a couple table spoons olive oil, salt and peppered it and placed the salmon on top.

Cover your salmon in olive oil, and lemon, I used juice because I forgot to pick up a real lemon, but it still came out great. Cover in dill and... here is the secret, sliced cloves of garlic. Just place them right on top. Sooo good.

In my house we like our fish cooked all the way through, but if like it cooked traditionally, about twenty minutes in the oven so the outside is cooked and the inside is medium rare. We baked ours for forty minutes... so good.

Rosemary potatoes:

3 to 4 small to medium red poatoes
1 to 2 springs rosemary chopped (or dried if that's what you have)
Olive oil

Cube potatoes and place on foil on a backing sheet. Pour olive oil over the potatoes, its okay if it pools it just makes the potatoes that much more delicious when you pull them out. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until tender when poked with a fork.

Baked Salmon:

Salmon. Your choice really, we had a large piece, skin still attached, but this would work well with stakes.
1 small onion
3 to 4 garlic cloves cut into slices. Or enough to cover the stop of the salmon
Dill enough to cover the top of the salmon
lemon or lemon juice to put on the top of the salmon
olive oil.

Slice the onion into large pieces and place on baking sheet with foil and olive oil. Place the salmon on top and over in olive oil, lemon, dill, and garlic. For medium rare bake 20 minutes, for a cooked though salmon about 40 minutes, depending on the thickness of the cut.
