Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 russet potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil divided
- 1 ½ pound salmon fillets
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon sea salt divided
- ½ teaspoon black pepper divided
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- ½ English cucumber shredded
- ¼ cup fresh dill
- juice of 1 lemon
- 4 tablespoons capers
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Scrub potatoes clean and poke each potato with a fork several times. Rub a little olive oil on each potato and sprinkle with a small amount of salt and pepper. Bake potatoes on a sheet pan for 45 to 55 minutes or until fork-tender.

- Meanwhile, pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Place on a sheet pan and brush with dijon mustard. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes until salmon flakes apart.

- Combine the yogurt, shredded cucumber, half the dill, and lemon juice in a mixing bowl. Stir till combined.

- Place the potatoes on plates or in large bowls and cut open. Flatten slightly with a fork.

- Scoop a quarter of the yogurt sauce onto each of the potatoes. Divide the salmon and place it on top of the potatoes. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper, drizzle with remaining olive oil, and top with remaining dill and capers.

Notes
Make Ahead - salmon, baked potatoes, and yogurt cucumber sauce can all be made 3 days in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
Storage - save leftovers for up to 3 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container. Store sauce separately from salmon and potato if possible, so you can reheat without warming the yogurt sauce.
