Ingredients
  

For the Salmon:

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

For the Roasted Veggies:

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 cup broccoli florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper

Garnish:

Fresh lemon wedges

Fresh dill or parsley, for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting.

    Prepare the Veggies: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved cherry tomatoes, sliced zucchini, diced red bell pepper, and broccoli florets. Drizzle them with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, then sprinkle Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper over the top. Toss everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated. Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on one side of a large sheet pan.

      Marinate the Salmon: In a separate bowl, whisk together the olive oil, fresh lemon juice, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Add the salmon fillets to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Allow the salmon to marinate for about 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

        Arrange the Salmon: Following the marinating period, carefully place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the sheet pan, next to the vegetables. Use a brush to apply any remaining marinade over the tops of the salmon fillets for added flavor.

          Roast in the Oven: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for approximately 15-18 minutes. You’ll know it’s ready when the salmon is cooked through, flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

            Garnish and Serve: Once finished, remove the sheet pan from the oven and allow it to rest for a few minutes. Garnish the dish with fresh lemon wedges and a sprinkle of additional dill or parsley for a vibrant finish. Serve warm and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors!
