Ingredients

Scale

For the salmon:

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp dried parsley
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Lemon slices, for garnish

For the potatoes and broccoli:

  • 1 lb (450 g) baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 cups (300 g) broccoli florets
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

1. Preheat the oven

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

2. Prepare the potatoes

  1. Toss the halved potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
  2. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.

3. Add the salmon and broccoli

  1. While the potatoes roast, season the salmon fillets with garlic powder, dried parsley, salt, and pepper.
  2. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter and lemon juice. Brush this mixture over the salmon fillets.
  3. Toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and push the potatoes to one side. Place the salmon fillets and broccoli florets on the baking sheet.

4. Roast everything together

  1. Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast for another 12–15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, the potatoes are crispy, and the broccoli is tender.

5. Serve

  1. Plate the salmon, potatoes, and broccoli. Garnish with lemon slices and serve warm.
