A quick and healthy one-tray roasted salmon and vegetables recipe that comes together in under 35 minutes, perfect for busy weeknights or meal prep.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz / 170 g each), skin-on
  • 1 cup baby potatoes, halved or quartered (Yukon Gold or red potatoes)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup green beans, trimmed
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced plus juice of half
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley or dill, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: pinch of red chili flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large bowl, toss baby potatoes, green beans, cherry tomatoes, and bell pepper slices with 2 tablespoons olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the veggies out evenly in a single layer. Roast in the oven for 15 minutes.
  4. Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Drizzle with remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and drizzle lemon juice over the top. Set aside.
  5. After veggies have roasted 15 minutes, remove the tray and nestle salmon fillets skin-side down among the veggies. Scatter lemon slices on top and around the tray.
  6. Return the tray to the oven and roast for 12-15 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and skin is crisp, and veggies are tender and golden at the edges.
  7. Sprinkle chopped parsley or dill over the salmon and veggies once out of the oven.
  8. Serve immediately with an optional extra lemon wedge.

Notes

Do not overcrowd the pan to allow veggies to caramelize properly. Pat salmon dry for crispy skin. Use high heat (425°F) for best results. If veggies are not browning enough, broil for last 2 minutes but watch carefully to avoid burning. Let salmon rest a few minutes after roasting to keep it moist. Leftovers keep well in fridge for up to 2 days and reheat gently in oven.
