The key to roasting salmon so it is juicy and tender is to slightly undercook it! You'll want to take it out of the oven when it is still a little pink inside as it will continue to cook once out of the oven. Serve salmon with Rosemary-Roasted Sweet Potatoes or Herb Roasted Potatoes and a simple Massaged Kale Salad or Steamed Green Beans for a simple, nourishing family dinner. This salmon also pairs well with the Winter Salad with Blood Orange Vinaigrette.
