Simple cooking from Southeast France is distinguished by fresh flavors and seasonal ingredients. Feel free to use any herbs you have on hand for this recipe, including dried ones. This dish is also wonderful, served at room temperature for an outdoor buffet or a picnic.

  • 1cup cherry tomatoes, preferably a mix of colors
  • 2TBS plus 2 tsp olive oil
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 4center-cut salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 2TBS chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2TBS chopped fresh tarragon
  • 1lb fingerling potatoes

  • 1TBS fresh lemon juice


Prep:
Set a rack to the top position of the oven and preheat the oven to 450°F.

Line a half sheet pan with a Silpat, foil or parchment paper. If using foil or parchment, spray with cooking spray.

In a small bowl, toss together the cherry tomatoes and 1 tsp of the oil, and season with salt and pepper. Brush the salmon with 1 tsp of the oil and season with the rosemary, tarragon, salt, and pepper. Set it aside.

Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise and cut any large ones in half crosswise as well. (You want them to be about the same size.)

In a bowl, toss together the potatoes and the 2 TBS oil.

Start potatoes:
Place, cut side down, on the prepared pan and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 8 minutes, then stir the potatoes.

Roast salmon and tomatoes:
Place the tomatoes and salmon on the pan and continue roasting until the potatoes are fork-tender, the tomatoes just begin to burst, and the salmon is opaque throughout, 10–15 minutes longer.

Finish and serve:
Sprinkle the parsley over the vegetables and pour the lemon juice over the salmon. Serve right away.

Nice crisp potatoes with a soft, fluffy inside. These roast at a lower temperature which makes them more compatible with other dishes.

  • 1½lb fingerling or baby potatoes
  • kosher salt
  • black pepper
  • 1tsp rosemary
  • 2tsp thyme
  • olive oil

Cut the potatoes in half and soak them in water for around 30 minutes to get fluffy inside while keeping the exterior crispy after roasting.

Preheat the pan. Next, place your roasting pan into the oven at 450°F degrees to heat up. Preheating the pan helps to have crispy potatoes.

Drain the potatoes and then toss them with salt, black pepper, rosemary, thyme, and a heavy pour of olive oil.

Add the potatoes to your preheated roasting pan and turn cut side down.

Place the pan into the oven and roast for 45 minutes or until golden-brown and fork tender.
