Ingredients:
- 4 salmon fillets, 6 oz each
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
- 1 bunch (10 oz) asparagus, woody ends trimmed
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
- 1 tsp dried oregano
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper.
- Toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tbsp of olive oil, salt, and pepper directly on the pan. Spread in a single layer and roast for 10-12 minutes until edges are pale gold. Note: This head start is the key to success.
- Remove the pan from the oven and move the roasted potatoes to the outer edges of the tray.
- Place the salmon fillets in the center of the pan and surround them with the broccoli florets and trimmed asparagus.
- In a small bowl, whisk together melted butter, minced garlic, lemon juice, and dried oregano. Drizzle the mixture evenly over the salmon and vegetables. Note: Ensure the salmon is well coated to prevent drying.
- Return the pan to the oven and roast for 8-12 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
- Switch the oven to Broil for the final 2 minutes until the glaze bubbles and browns. Note: Watch it closely so the garlic doesn't burn.
- Let the pan rest for 5 minutes before serving. Note: This allows juices to redistribute in the fish.
