Dilly Salmon & Mustardy Potatoes with Pickle Tartar Sauce
Weeknight cooking at its easiest, and most satisfying, courtesy of a few punchy flavors. In this recipe, Dilly-licious Salt-Free seasoning does double duty, infusing both the salmon and accompanying Pickle Tartar Sauce with plenty of spunk. (Our tangy pickle blend has plenty of flavor, sans sodium; but feel free to add salt as desired). Roasting salmon gently, at a lower temperature results in an exceptionally tender texture. Potatoes are tossed with butter and Creole mustard round out the plate.

For the Punchy Pickle Tartar Sauce
Directions
Make the Punchy Pickle Tartar Sauce by combining all of the ingredients in a bowl and mixing until smooth. Taste and add additional lemon juice, black pepper or salt as desired. Refrigerate while you prepare the salmon and potatoes.
Heat the oven to 300 F. Place a piece of parchment on a rimmed baking sheet and lightly oil the parchment. Combine the Dilly-licious seasoning and olive oil in a small bowl. Use a brush to evenly coat the salmon filets.
Boil the potatoes in a 2-quart saucepan with a generous pinch of salt and enough water to cover by 3 inches. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, reduce heat and simmer until cooked through, about 12 minutes. Drain the potatoes and return to the pan with the butter, white wine vinegar, and Creole mustard (cover the pan to keep warm).
Roast the salmon for until it’s just cooked through, about 20 minutes. Serve with the mustardy potatoes (give them another kick of heat if desired, and toss them a few times just before serving) and Punchy Pickle Tartar Sauce on the side.
