1.Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2.In a small bowl, whisk together the mirin, soy sauce, lemon juice, lemon zest, chopped thyme, chopped parsley, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and pepper until well combined.

3.In a separate bowl, toss the cubed potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.

4.Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and arrange the seasoned potatoes around the salmon.

5.Pour the marinade evenly over the salmon fillets, ensuring they are well coated.

6.Let the salmon and potatoes marinate for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

7.Bake the salmon and potatoes in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the potatoes are golden and tender.

8.Remove from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
