BAKED SALMON WITH VEGETABLES RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Thaw fish, if frozen. Rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels. Cut into four serving-size pieces, if necessary. Set aside. In a small saucepan cook carrot, covered, in a small amount of boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain and set aside. Tear off four 24-inch pieces of 18-inch-wide heavy foil. Fold each in half to make four 18x12-inch pieces.
• In a large bowl combine carrot, mushrooms, green onion, orange peel, oregano, the 1/4 teaspoon salt, the 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and garlic; toss gently.
• Divide vegetables among the four pieces of foil, placing vegetables in center of each piece. Place one piece of salmon on top of each portion of vegetables. Drizzle 1 teaspoon of the oil over each piece of salmon. Sprinkle each lightly with additional salt and pepper; top with orange slices and, if desired, a sprig of oregano. Bring together two opposite edges of foil and seal with a double fold. Fold remaining ends to completely enclose the food, allowing space for steam to build. Place the foil packets in a single layer on a baking pan.
• Bake in a 350 degree F oven about 30 minutes or until carrot is tender and fish begins to flake when tested with a fork. Open carefully to allow steam to escape. Transfer the packets to individual plates

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss together potatoes, shallots, 1 tablespoon of the oil, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt on a large rimmed baking sheet. Arrange mixture in an even layer, with potatoes facing cut sides down. Roast until almost tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from oven.
• While potato mixture roasts, stir together 3 tablespoons of the mustard, 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and 1 teaspoon of the honey in a small bowl. Stir together panko, thyme, 1 tablespoon of the oil, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a separate small bowl. Arrange salmon fillets, skin side down, on a plate. Spread mustard mixture evenly over skinless tops of fillets. Sprinkle tops evenly with panko mixture, pressing to adhere.
• Stir roasted potato mixture on baking sheet, pushing mixture toward edges of baking sheet with a spatula. Place salmon filets, skin side down, in center of baking sheet. Scatter sugar snap peas evenly around salmon. Return baking sheet to oven. Bake at 425°F until panko crust is golden brown, salmon is cooked to medium doneness (turns flaky and opaque), and potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk together vinegar, garlic, smoked paprika, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons mustard, and 1/2 teaspoon honey in a small bowl until combined.
• Divide salmon fillets and vegetable mixture evenly among 4 plates. Drizzle vegetable mixture evenly with vinaigrette.
