How to Make Seared Salmon With Crispy Potatoes Peas Summer Vegetable Gratin

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Wash and quarter 1 lb small red potatoes. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
  3. Roast for 35 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Set aside and keep warm.
  4. While potatoes roast, prepare the vegetable gratin: In a large bowl, combine 1 cup frozen peas, 1 bunch chopped asparagus, 1 bunch chopped swiss chard, 1 thinly sliced leek, 1 cup fava beans, 1/4 cup chopped mint, 1/4 cup chopped basil, 1/2 cup heavy cream, the juice of 1/2 lemon, salt, and pepper. Toss well.
  5. Transfer vegetable mixture to a 10-inch shallow baking dish.
  6. In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs, 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 minced shallot, 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle over vegetables.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cream is bubbling and the top is lightly browned.
  8. Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
  9. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until hot.
  10. Sear salmon, skin-side down (if using skin-on fillets), for 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until cooked through.
  11. Arrange the seared salmon on top of the vegetable gratin.
  12. Squeeze the remaining lemon juice over the salmon.
  13. Garnish with crispy potatoes and fresh parsley. Serve immediately.
