Ingredients

Servings:4

  • 4 fillets (5 oz each) salmon
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, cubed
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 2 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 1 medium lemon, cut in wedges

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the sweet potatoes with 1 Tbsp oil and half the salt and roast for 10 minutes.
  2. Add the broccoli tossed with the remaining oil to the pan and push the vegetables to the sides.
  3. Place the salmon in the center, season with garlic powder, paprika and the remaining salt.
  4. Roast 12 to 15 minutes until the salmon reaches 145°F (63°C) and flakes easily.
  5. Serve with lemon wedges.

Tips

  • Trout or arctic char work in place of salmon.
  • Check the internal temperature with a thermometer for food safety.
