Salmon and Potato Casserole

Ingredients

• 454grams wild salmon fillet , skin removed
• 4mls salt
• 0mls pepper
• 454grams new potatoes, sliced 1/4 inch thick
• 60mls olive oil
• 15mls olive oil
• 1 lemon, sliced into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
• 12 pitted black olives, such as niçoise or picholine
• 30mls fresh lemon juice
• 15mls fresh orange juice
• 30mls chopped basil
• 5mls fresh thyme leaves

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Season the salmon fillet with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper on both sides. Place the potatoes in a single layer in an 8 1/2- by 11-inch casserole. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over the potatoes and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; roast in the oven for 15 minutes.
2. Remove from oven and layer half the lemon slices over potatoes. Lay the fillet over the lemon slices, top with remaining lemon slices and olives, and return to oven. Reduce oven temperature to 250 degrees F and roast until salmon and potatoes are cooked through -- about 40 minutes.
3. Whisk the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, orange juice, remaining salt, and remaining pepper in a small bowl. Stir in the basil and thyme and drizzle over the warm salmon. Serve immediately.
