Ingredients
- 4 pieces (about 6 oz each) salmon fillets
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 minced garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh dill
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 pound, trimmed asparagus
- 1 cup, halved cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium, sliced red onion
- 1 large, sliced zucchini
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Place the salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet, skin-side down. Brush the garlic-dill mixture over the top of each fillet, ensuring even coverage.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the asparagus, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and zucchini. Toss until the vegetables are well coated.
Step 5
Arrange the seasoned vegetables around the salmon on the baking sheet, spreading them out in a single layer for even roasting.
Step 6
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender.
Step 7
Remove from the oven and let rest for a couple of minutes. Serve the roasted salmon with a generous portion of the roasted seasonal vegetables on the side.
Step 8
Garnish with additional fresh dill or a squeeze of lemon if desired, and enjoy a nutritious, high-protein meal.
