A holiday roast doesn't need to be beef or bird. Try salmon!
[...] roasted salmon is incredibly easy, quick (taking minutes, not hours like many roasts), and is versatile.
Since we try to eat fatty fish twice a week in our home, this holiday favorite helps get us there, year-round.
Just brush the fillet with seasoned olive oil (which can be as simple as salt, pepper and oil), roast it quickly at high heat, then top it with a quick vinaigrette-style sauce.
Mix together almost any combination of herbs, spices and aromatics with some acid (such as lemon juice or red wine vinegar) and oil, then spoon it over the just-roasted, piping hot fish.
