Soy-Glazed Salmon With Baked Potatoes and Creamy Sauce
This may look tricky, but it’s just another easy one – 20 minutes for roasting the potatoes and some salmon pan-cooking is all the fuss. Give the salmon a special taste by frying it in soy sauce, garlic, and lemon juice. Obtain a creamy and savory sauce by adding onion, white wine, and blue cheese.
