A delectable one-dish meal The pink salmon looks particularly pretty in this dish, but any firm-fleshed fish steak (such as halibut, shark, or even tilefish) would be good prepared this way.

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon steaks, about ¾ inch thick (6 to 8 ounces each)

Method

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Blot the salmon steaks dry with a paper towel. Place on a platter and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of the lemon juice.
  3. Combine the potatoes, leeks, onion, carrots, and shallots in a large heavy baking dish. Drizzle with the olive oil
