Ingredients

• 4 pieces Salmon fillets
• 2 large Sweet potatoes
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
• 1 sliced Lemon

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 3

Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil on the sweet potatoes and season with 0.5 teaspoon salt, 0.25 teaspoon black pepper, paprika, and ground cumin. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 4

Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through for even caramelization.

Step 5

While the sweet potatoes are roasting, prepare the salmon fillets by patting them dry with a paper towel.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of olive oil, honey, minced garlic, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and 0.25 teaspoon black pepper.

Step 7

Brush the olive oil and honey mixture evenly over the salmon fillets.

Step 8

Remove the baking sheet from the oven after 20 minutes and push the sweet potatoes to one side to make room for the salmon.

Step 9

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the baking sheet and return it to the oven. Roast everything for an additional 10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 10

Remove the baking sheet from the oven and garnish the salmon and sweet potatoes with freshly chopped parsley and lemon slices.

Step 11

Serve warm and enjoy a perfectly balanced meal of flavorful salmon and roasted sweet potatoes.
