Cooking with Heinen’s | Fresh Citrus Roasted Salmon

Looking for a quick and easy dinner to add to your weeknight line up? Try Fresh Citrus Roasted Salmon for the win. Extra time in your day and great nutrients on your plate. If your into minimal meal prep, one pan of this and half your work is done for the week. 

We’re taking full advantage of the abundant selection of fresh citrus at Heinen’s Grocery. Heinen’s is getting ready to celebrate this season with their annual Zest Fest so our timing is perfect. Stay tuned for details! If you’re looking for other ways to celebrate citrus season how about Orange Jam and the ultimate date night cocktail with fresh Satsuma infused vodka

Our roasted citrus salmon starts with a sprinkle of sea salt, lemon pepper, pink peppercorns and thyme. Place the filets on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Top with slices of fresh citrus and sprigs of fresh dill. Drizzle with EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) and place in a 350° oven. Dinner will be on the table in no time. 

I’m serving ours casually on a paper bag with fresh roasted potatoes. Here’s a tip: For potatoes with a crisp, crunchy exterior and fluffy, flavorful insides parboil your potatoes first.

Parboiling your potato wedges or slices before roasting helps cook them evenly, and helps them crisp up quickly. Kenji Lopez, writing for Cooking Light, explains how this method works:

“Simmering starchy baking potatoes in water (seasoned with salt) gelatinizes a layer of starch on their exterior surfaces. This layer will then dehydrate and brown as the potato roasts, creating a thick, crisp shell.”

Once the potatoes are tender, remove them from the water. Then dress as you normally would with oil and spices and pop them in the oven. You don’t want to over boil the potatoes though, so he suggests you add a tablespoon of white vinegar to the water to stop the potatoes from falling apart.
