2 tablespoons fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon olive oil
Juice of 1 lime
Salt to taste
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway.

Don’t overcook salmon—aim for just cooked and flaky.
Roast potatoes in a single layer for maximum crisp.
Avocado salsa is best served fresh for texture and color.
