Baked Salmon With Potato Wedges
If you are looking for a flavorful, succulent, and super easy to make Baked Salmon recipe, please keep on reading. I am sharing with you today one of my go-to recipes, that sounds so simple yet can easily become your favorite baked salmon recipe!
When it comes to salmon, you want to cook this fish but keep its own flavor. Of course, you can be creative and use different spices, toppings, or even sauces but just make sure that the flavor of salmon especially when fresh is not lost in all that seasoning.
In this recipe, the baked salmon will turn out juicy and the blend of spices used will enhance the flavor, taking it to another level.
Adding slices of butter on the seasoned salmon, prevent the salmon from drying while it’s baking and lightly cook the seasoning, giving you a scrumptious layer.

And now that I made your decision for making dinner or lunch easy, why not check your kitchen and make sure you have all the ingredients? Get fresh salmon it always tastes the best.

Thank you Trisha 🙂
This recipe looks appetizing! It made my mouth water
I like salmon, it tastes good and has a pleasant texture on the tongue. I will try your recipe. Thank you
This recipe came into my life at such a perfect time! I am very low in B12; I need to get monthly injections for it, and I need to try and incorporate it into my diet. My partner doesn’t like seafood so he has no idea how to cook it, but he’s going to try and make it for me, we just need to figure out HOW to make it! Apparently salmon has a pretty good amount of B12 in it, so I’ll have to bookmark this recipe for future reference 😋
Oh gosh, this has made me so hungry it sounds great. I love Salmon, so I will try baking it with some potatoes wedges soon.

Won’t the salmon dry out if you have to wait until the wedges are done?
Hi Deli, you bake them separately at different oven temperatures. Hope this helped 🙂
