One-Pan Salmon & Veggies
Prep Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
INGREDIENTS
4, 4 ounce Salmon Filets
1 Large Zucchini, sliced
1 Large Yellow Squash, sliced
8 ounces Cherry Tomatoes
2 tablespoons Butter, melted
2 tablespoons Olive Oil
Juice of 1 Large Lemon
4 cloves Garlic, minced
2 teaspoons Dried Parlsey
Salt & Pepper
Lemon Slices, for garnish
Extra Lemon Juice, for serving
DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 400F. Line a baking sheet with foil or a silat baking sheet. Lightly grease with oil or non-stick cooking spray (only if using foil, no need to grease if using silat).
2. Place the salmon filets evenly spaced down the center of the pan. Arrange the veggies around the edges and in between filets.
3. In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic and parsley. Drizzle half of the mixture over the vegetables and toss to coat. Drizzle the remaining butter mixture over the salmon, turning over a couple of times to make sure all sides of the filets are coated. Season salmon and veggies with salt and pepper. Top each filet with lemon slices, if desired.
4. Bake 15 minutes, or until salmon flakes easily and reaches an internal temperature of 145F. Make sure the veggies are fork tender as well. Sprinkle with extra lemon juice when serving, if desired.
