Going, going, tarra-gone! The taste of this fresh herb—like a citrusy licorice—lends elegance to a fish supper. The salmon is seared to juicy pink with our tangy Zested Peppers seasonings, then wrapped in a luscious sour cream sauce. They’re served atop baby potatoes that achieve textbook-perfect tenderness (thanks to some microwave magic). Not to be outdone, the baby greens and radish salad is showered with texture from a nut and seed topper.

Preparation
Cook the potatoes
Pierce the potatoes multiple times all over the surface. In a medium heatproof bowl, add the potatoes. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and pierce a few holes. Microwave, 8 to 10 min. (10 to 12 min. for 4 portions), until tender. Add 1 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Lightly crush the potatoes.
Mise en place
Meanwhile, quarter the radishes (cut into sixths if large). Pick the tarragon leaves off the stems; roughly chop the leaves. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and 3 tbsp water (double for 4 portions).
Cook the salmon & make the sauce
Pat the salmon dry with paper towel; season with ¾ of the spices and S&P. In a large pan (non-stick if possible), heat a drizzle of oil and 1 tbsp butter (double for 4 portions) on medium. Add the salmon* and garlic. Cook, 2 to 3 min. per side, until browned and cooked as desired. Add the sour cream mixture. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 min., until saucy.
Make the salad
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the baby greens, radishes, vinaigrette, salad topper, remaining spices and S&P.
Plate your dish
Divide the potatoes between your plates. Top with the salmon and sauce. Garnish with the tarragon. Serve the salad on the side. Bon appétit!
