This super easy and quick salmon and fingerling potato sheet pan meal for two with a lemon dill tartar sauce is the perfect healthy dinner!
There’s few things I love more than an easy sheet pan meal. They’re quick and make clean up super minimal. Which is what makes them the ideal week-night meal. But, the key is to make them delicious and packed with flavor. Like this salmon and potato one right here. The salmon is flakey and baked to perfection. Also, it’s seasoned just right. The fingerling potatoes are coated in a handful of seasonings and grated parmesan. Then I topped everything will some fresh dill, lemon, and served it with a creamy tartar sauce. So delicious!
This meal comes together in no time. Plus, it’s so well balanced. But, if you want some greens in there for an even bigger healthy bonus, I suggest a nice side salad with some spring mix or arugula. This would really pull the meal together. However, even without a salad I find it very satisfying and filling. I’ve been trying to eat more salmon lately because it’s such a great protein! I always get mine from Butcher Box [3].
