Salmon Sheet Pan is a wholesome one-pan dinner where salmon fillets roast alongside seasoned vegetables for a balanced, flavorful meal with minimal prep and cleanup. It’s quick, customizable, and perfect for weeknight dinners.

Ingredients

  • 4 salmon fillets (skin-on or skinless)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp paprika or smoked paprika (optional)
  • 2 cups baby potatoes or diced sweet potatoes
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup green beans
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley or dill, chopped (optional garnish)
  • Lemon wedges, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
  2. In a bowl, whisk olive oil, lemon juice, zest, garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika.
  3. Toss potatoes, broccoli, green beans, zucchini, tomatoes, and bell pepper with half of the oil mixture. Spread on the sheet pan in a single layer.
  4. Roast vegetables for 15 minutes.
  5. Brush salmon fillets with remaining oil mixture.
  6. Push vegetables to the sides of the pan and place salmon in the center.
  7. Roast another 12–15 minutes, until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  8. Remove from oven, garnish with parsley or dill, and serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

  • Use skin-on salmon to help keep fillets moist while roasting.
  • Start with hearty vegetables (potatoes, carrots) and add softer veggies later to avoid overcooking.
  • Parchment paper makes cleanup easy and prevents sticking.
  • Marinate salmon and chop veggies ahead for faster prep.
  • Double the recipe using two sheet pans to avoid overcrowding.
