How to Make Sheet Pan Salmon and Veggies
Now, let’s get cooking! This one-pan wonder is as easy as it is delicious. Here’s how:
- Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This is the perfect temperature for roasting your veggies and getting that salmon just right.
- Prepare the Veggies: Toss the carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower with olive oil, sea salt, and a generous helping of freshly ground pepper. Spread them out on a large baking sheet in a single layer, making sure they have a little room to breathe.
- Season the Salmon: While your veggies start to roast, season your salmon fillets with garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and pepper. This simple mix will add a burst of flavor to your fish.
- Roast Together: After your veggies have been in the oven for about 15 minutes, make some space on the sheet and lay your salmon fillets among them. Return the sheet to the oven and roast everything together for another 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the veggies are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve and Enjoy: That’s it! Serve your beautifully roasted salmon and veggies hot from the oven. This dish is not only a treat for your taste buds but also a colorful spectacle on your plate.
