Ingredients

– 4 salmon fillets
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 lemon, sliced
– 1 bunch of fresh dill
– 1 cup sour cream
– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 4 medium potatoes, cut into wedges
– 1 tablespoon paprika
– Fresh dill for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Crafting Scandinavian Oven-Baked Salmon with Dill Sauce and Crispy Potato Wedges involves a few simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare Potatoes: In a bowl, toss potato wedges with olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
3. Bake Potatoes: Spread the potato wedges on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 20 minutes.
4. Prepare Salmon: While the potatoes bake, season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper. Place them on another baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
5. Add Lemon and Dill: Lay lemon slices and fresh dill on top of the salmon fillets.
6. Mix Dill Sauce: In a small bowl, combine sour cream, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and chopped dill. Mix until smooth.
7. Bake Salmon: After 20 minutes, add the salmon to the oven and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
8. Check Potatoes: While the salmon bakes, toss the potato wedges and return them to the oven for another 5-10 minutes until crispy and golden.
9. Serve Hot: Once cooking is complete, remove both the salmon and potatoes from the oven.
10. Plate the Dish: Serve the salmon with a generous dollop of dill sauce and crispy potato wedges on the side. Garnish with additional fresh dill if desired.

These steps will help you create an incredible meal that encapsulates the essence of Scandinavian flavors in a deliciously satisfying way.
