Roasted cumin salmon with carrots
Roasted Cumin Salmon With Carrots features flaky salmon fillets with a cumin-lemon-garlic crust, paired with sweet roasted carrots, all brightened by a squeeze of lemon juice and optional parsley.
Cumin rarely gets to play the lead spice, but here its warmth takes center stage. Combined with lots of lemon zest and garlic, the nutty, earthy seeds transform into a simple, flavorful crust for flaky roasted salmon fillets. To turn this dish into a meal, thick-cut carrots join the party; their sweetness pairs effortlessly with the spice. A big squeeze of lemon juice and a shower of optional parsley to finish bring brightness.
