Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Cut potatoes into 1-inch cubes and toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet with cauliflower florets; roast for 20 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    While vegetables roast, chop onion and tomato. In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tbsp olive oil and cook onion until soft, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add tomato and pineapple chunks to skillet; cook until tomatoes break down and mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in heavy cream and simmer until sauce coats the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.

  5. Step 5

    Place salmon fillets on a separate baking sheet, season with salt and pepper, and bake for 12-15 minutes until opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  6. Step 6

    Serve salmon topped with the fruit-vegetable sauce, alongside the roasted potatoes and cauliflower.

  7. Step 7

    Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or dill if you have them.
