Ingredients
4 salmon fillets
2 cups baby potatoes, halved
2 cups broccoli florets
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
Toss the halved potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, pepper, and paprika. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes.
Add the broccoli to the tray, tossing it with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Push the vegetables aside and place the salmon fillets on the tray.
In a small bowl, mix melted butter, lemon juice, lemon zest, and minced garlic.
Spoon the lemon butter mixture over the salmon.
Return the tray to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily.
Serve immediately with an extra squeeze of lemon if desired.
Notes
Do not overcrowd the pan to ensure crispy potatoes.
Swap broccoli with asparagus or green beans if preferred.
Add parmesan cheese to vegetables for extra flavor.
Use olive oil instead of butter for a dairy-free version.
