Table For One

my lazy-fancy salmon, a weeknight staple when I'm cooking for myself

When it comes to the recipes I share, they’re always designed for a crowd. Hosting at home with a table full of friends is at the core of everything I do—so what I cook for myself rarely becomes a Lazy-Fancy recipe. My mission has always been to show you how to create beautiful meals and memorable experiences—and to prove that it’s easier than you think.

Nothing is easier than this Lazy-Fancy Salmon. I’ve been making a version of this for years because it’s quick, nourishing, and endlessly adaptable to whatever flavors I’m craving. Whether you’re a beginner in the kitchen or a confident cook, this is a foolproof recipe to master—perfect for a cozy night in or supersize it for table full of friends.

I usually pair it with a side of steamed rice or roast up whatever seasonal vegetables I have on hand—broccolini, potatoes, root vegetables, you name it. And for those of you who, like me, aren’t big on leftovers—this is one of the rare recipes that’s just as delicious the next day.
