Ingredients
Scale
Gather these simple ingredients, and you’re halfway to a delightful meal:
- 4 salmon fillets
- 1.5 pounds of potatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped
- 1 lemon, zested and juiced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
If you’re out of fresh dill, dried dill works too—just use half the amount. No fresh salmon? Frozen fillets work like a charm; just thaw them first.

Ready to dive in? Follow these steps, and you’ll have a delicious dinner in no time:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a large baking dish with olive oil.
- Layer the sliced potatoes evenly in the dish, seasoning each layer with salt, pepper, and a sprinkle of lemon zest.
- In a small bowl, combine heavy cream, minced garlic, lemon juice, and chopped dill. Pour half of this mixture over the potatoes.
- Lay the salmon fillets on top of the potatoes, skin side down. Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour the remaining cream mixture over the salmon and potatoes, ensuring even coverage.
- Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 25 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
- Broil for 2-3 minutes to achieve a golden, crispy top.
- Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
This dish is a lifesaver on busy nights—throw it together, pop it in the oven, and let it work its magic.
