Meal Preparation Tips
This is such a delicious and easy meal to prepare and it cooks in under 30 minutes. I cut fingerling potatoes in half lengthwise and they get a wonderful golden crunch on the cut side, a little crumble of goat cheese and a sprinkle of sea salt and you could just live on these potatoes alone. Start by cooking the potatoes for 12 minutes, turn the potatoes and add the salmon and vegetables to the oven and cook for another 12 – 15 minutes. If you are cooking a small quantity you could even cook the salmon and vegetables on the same tray.
Roasted Salmon
1 – salmon filet (allow 1/3lb per person)
1 – teaspoon olive oil
½ - teaspoon herbs de Provence
½ - teaspoon kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
Pre-heat the oven to 350° Convection or Convection Roast. Line a flat baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the salmon on top of the paper.
Drizzle a little olive oil over the salmon and sprinkle on the herbs, salt & pepper.
Bake for 12-15 minutes, depending on weight the fish should flake easily with a fork. It can be slightly under cooked, as it will continue cooking once it is out of the oven. Set aside to cool.
Roasted Asparagus, Mushrooms and Yellow Peppers
1 – bunch asparagus, trimmed & cut on the diagonal into 2” pieces
1 – cup mushrooms, cleaned & cut into ½ “ slices
½ - medium red onion sliced
1 – yellow pepper, seeded and sliced into 2” pieces
Extra virgin olive oil
¼ - teaspoon mixed Italian seasoning
Combine all the vegetables in a bowl and toss with a little olive oil to coat, add the herbs and season with salt and pepper.
Place on a baking sheet and cook for 15 minutes in the Convection mode at 350°
Roasted Fingerling Potatoes
1lb – fingerling potatoes, washed, dried & cut in half lengthwise
Olive oil and kosher salt
Pre-heat the oven to Convection Roast 350°
Wash the potatoes and dry thoroughly then toss in enough olive oil to coat spread onto a rimmed baking sheet and season with kosher salt. Cook the potatoes on rack position 2 close to the heat from the bottom so they get nice and crisp.
