Ingredients
1.5–2 lbs Atlantic salmon fillets, portioned
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 lb fresh green beans, ends trimmed
0.5 lb broccoli florets, chopped
1 lb carrots, peeled and sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon coarse salt
0.5 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil (for veggies)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
Grease a large rimmed baking sheet with olive oil or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, toss green beans, broccoli, and carrots with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Spread the vegetable mixture across the baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, and Italian seasoning.
Remove the pan from the oven, push vegetables to the sides, and place salmon fillets in the center.
Brush the lemon butter mixture generously over the salmon and vegetables.
Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Notes
Ensure salmon fillets are of uniform thickness for even cooking. For added brightness, garnish with fresh parsley or extra lemon wedges before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
