🛒 Ingredients

✓ 5 oz wild-caught salmon fillet (skin-on)
✓ 140g sweet potato, cut into 3 wedges
✓ 180g fresh broccoli florets
✓ 1 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
✓ Pinch of sea salt
✓ Freshly cracked black pepper
✓ 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
✓ 1/2 tsp garlic powder
✓ 1 tbsp fresh dill or parsley, chopped
✓ 2 sprays extra-virgin olive oil cooking spray (for broccoli)
✓ 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
✓ Lemon wedge (1/4 lemon) for serving

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prep the Sweet Potato: Cut 140g sweet potato into 3 even wedges (about 1/2-inch thick). Toss lightly with 1/2 tsp olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Place on a foil-lined baking sheet.

2. Preheat Grill & Oven: Set oven to 425°F (220°C) and place sweet potato wedges in to roast. Heat grill pan or outdoor grill to medium-high (about 400°F / 200°C) for 5 minutes.

3. Prep the Salmon: Pat salmon skin dry with paper towels. Season skin side with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika. Lightly brush flesh side with 1/2 tsp olive oil.

4. Grill the Salmon: Place salmon skin-side down on hot grill. Don't move for 4 minutes—this creates the signature crust. Flip gently, cook flesh side 2–3 minutes until just cooked through (internal temp 145°F/63°C). Remove to plate.

5. Steam the Broccoli: While salmon cooks, bring 1/2 cup water to boil in a pot with steamer basket. Add broccoli, cover, steam 4–5 minutes until tender-crisp. Transfer to serving bowl.

6. Finish Broccoli: Spray broccoli with 2 sprays cooking oil, squeeze 1/2 tsp fresh lemon juice over top, sprinkle garlic powder and sea salt. Toss gently.

7. Assemble the Plate: Place salmon in center. Arrange sweet potato wedges and broccoli on either side. Garnish salmon with fresh dill and a lemon wedge.

8. Rest & Serve: Let salmon rest 2 minutes before eating to retain moisture. Squeeze fresh lemon over entire plate before serving.
