This roasted salmon with goat cheese and dill is simple enough for a nourishing weeknight dinner and elegant enough for your spring or winter holiday table. The creamy goat cheese paired with fresh dill creates a vibrant, herbaceous flavor that perfectly complements the richness of the salmon. Serve it alongside steamed green beans, roasted vegetables, and a peppery arugula salad for a balanced meal. Wild-caught Sockeye or Coho salmon work best in this recipe!
