Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 2 salmon fillets skin-on
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbsp fresh dill chopped

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Scrub sweet potatoes clean, pierce with a fork, rub with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 45-60 minutes until tender.
  • Heat a skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil. Season salmon with salt and pepper. Cook skin-side down for 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook until done.
  • Cut open baked sweet potatoes, fluff insides with a fork, drizzle with lemon juice, and top with salmon. Garnish with fresh dill.

Serving

  • Serve immediately while hot. Pair with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.

Storage

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F until warm.

Notes

Pro Tips: For maximum crispiness, ensure the salmon skin is completely dry before cooking. Ingredient Substitutions: Use trout or halibut as alternatives to salmon. How to Serve: Best served hot with a side of greens. Storage & Freshness: Store in the fridge and consume within 3 days. Make-Ahead Tips: Bake sweet potatoes ahead and reheat when ready to serve.
