Roasted Green Goddess Salmon

This delicious Roasted Green Goddess Salmon is a celebration of the Prince William Sound salmon season. While it features a gorgeous Copper River Salmon fillet, Prince William Sound salmon is also an excellent choice this time of year. The salmon is smothered in a creamy Green Goddess sauce, made with fresh herbs, garlic, anchovies, and lemon, creating a bright, flavorful topping that enhances the fish’s delicate taste. Quick and easy to prepare, this dish is perfect for both weeknight dinners and entertaining. Serve it with roasted potatoes, a light green salad, fresh bread, and a crisp white wine for a complete meal.
