Pan-Seared Salmon with Roasted Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients

• Sweet potato

  raw

  1 sweetpotato, 5" long or 130g

• Olive oil

  2 tbsp or 27g

• Salt

  table

  ¼ tsp or 2g

• Paprika

  ½ tsp or 1g

• Atlantic salmon

  farmed, raw

  6 oz or 170g

Directions

1. Heat the oven to 400°F and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment for easy cleanup.
2. Cut the sweet potato into wedges and toss with half of the olive oil, half of the salt, and half of the paprika. Spread in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
3. Roast until tender with lightly crisped edges, about 20 minutes, turning the wedges once halfway through.
4. Meanwhile, warm the remaining olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
5. Season the salmon with the remaining salt and paprika.
6. Place the salmon skin-side down in the hot skillet and cook 4–5 minutes. Flip and cook 3–4 minutes more, until just opaque and it flakes easily with a fork.
7. Serve the pan-seared salmon alongside the roasted sweet potatoes.
