Sheet Pan Lemon Garlic Salmon with Roasted Vegetables

This sheet pan lemon garlic salmon with roasted vegetables is an easy, healthy dinner perfect for busy winter nights. Everything cooks together on one pan, keeping cleanup simple while delivering bright, fresh flavor. The salmon roasts until tender and flaky, while the vegetables become lightly caramelized and golden.

Step-by-step instructions

Step 1: Prep the oven and pan
Preheat the oven to 400 F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.

Step 2: Prepare the vegetables
Add the baby potatoes, green beans, and bell pepper to the sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil, add the minced garlic, salt, and pepper, and toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 3: Roast the vegetables
Spread the vegetables into an even layer and roast for 10 minutes to give them a head start.

Step 4: Add the salmon
Remove the pan from the oven and place the salmon fillet in the center of the pan. Season the salmon lightly with salt and pepper.

Step 5: Finish roasting
Arrange lemon slices over the salmon. Return the pan to the oven and roast for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork.

Step 6: Rest and serve
Remove the pan from the oven and let the salmon rest for a few minutes before serving.

This dish is best served right away while the salmon is warm and flaky, paired with the roasted vegetables straight from the pan
