Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup green beans, trimmed
  • 1 bell pepper, sliced (any color)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

How to Make Herb-Crusted Salmon with Veggies

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, parsley, salt, and black pepper to create the herb crust.
  3. Place the salmon fillets on one side of the prepared baking sheet. Spread the herb mixture evenly over the tops of the fillets.
  4. In another bowl, toss the broccoli, green beans, and bell pepper with the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Arrange the seasoned vegetables on the other side of the baking sheet, ensuring they are spread out in a single layer.
  6. Bake everything in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  7. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a couple of minutes before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

  • Make sure your salmon is at room temperature before cooking for even cooking.
  • For extra crunch, broil the salmon for the last 2-3 minutes of cooking.
  • Adjust the cooking time depending on the thickness of your salmon fillets.
  • Feel free to add a sprinkle of fresh herbs right before serving for an extra pop of flavor.

Easy Variations

  • Swap the salmon for another fish like trout or cod.
  • Use seasonal vegetables like asparagus, zucchini, or cherry tomatoes.
  • Experiment with different herbs like dill or basil for a twist on flavor.
  • Add a sprinkle of feta cheese over the vegetables for a tangy kick.

What to Serve With It

  • Quinoa or couscous for a hearty side.
  • A side salad with mixed greens and a light vinaigrette.
  • Crusty bread to soak up the delicious juices.
  • A dollop of tzatziki or a lemony yogurt sauce for added creaminess.

Storage and Reheating

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place the salmon and veggies in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes, or until warmed through.
