One-Pan Lemon Herb Salmon

A quick and healthy one-pan dish featuring salmon fillets baked with a medley of herbs, fresh lemon, and seasonal vegetables for a light yet flavorful meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 lemon, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup green beans, trimmed
  • 1 cup baby potatoes, halved

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the baby potatoes on a large baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and roast for 15 minutes.
  3. In a small bowl, mix remaining olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic powder, oregano, and thyme.
  4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and push the potatoes to the side. Add the salmon fillets, cherry tomatoes, and green beans to the sheet.
  5. Brush the salmon and vegetables with the herb lemon mixture. Top each salmon fillet with a lemon slice.
  6. Return to the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and vegetables are tender.
  7. Serve hot with additional lemon wedges if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh herbs for a more vibrant flavor.
  • Try adding asparagus or zucchini for variation.
  • Adjust baking time depending on the thickness of the salmon fillets.
