This seared honey salmon with potatoes and spinach is a quick, wholesome meal that’s perfect for weeknight dinners.

The salmon is seared to a golden crust and glazed with honey for a sweet, savory finish. Tender roasted potatoes and garlicky spinach round out the plate. It’s a simple, nutritious dinner that feels special with minimal effort.

Ingredients

  • 1 (24-ounce) bag baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced, divided
  • ¾ teaspoon salt, divided
  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper, divided
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 4 (5-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets
  • 1 (10-ounce) bag fresh spinach

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss halved potatoes, 1 tablespoon oil, 1 minced garlic clove, ¼ teaspoon salt and ⅛ teaspoon pepper together on a large baking sheet. Spread into an even layer. Roast, flipping once, until the potatoes are tender and beginning to brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
  2. Whisk 2 tablespoons honey, 2 teaspoons oil, the remaining minced garlic and ⅛ teaspoon each salt and pepper together in a small bowl.
  3. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the salmon with ⅛ teaspoon salt. Add to the skillet, skin-side up; cook, flipping once, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and spoon the honey mixture over, fully coating the fillets.
  4. Add spinach to the skillet in batches; cook, stirring, until wilted, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt.
  5. Serve the salmon with the roasted potatoes and sautéed spinach.
