  • 1 lemon
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup asparagus, trimmed
  • 1 cup baby potatoes, halved
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

Now that we have all of our ingredients ready, let’s move on to the cooking process:

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). While the oven is heating up, wash and pat dry the salmon fillets. Zest and juice the lemon, then set aside. Cut the cherry tomatoes in half and trim the asparagus. Also, halve the baby potatoes if they are not already prepped.

Step 2: Season the Salmon

Next, season the salmon fillets with salt, pepper, and half of the dried herbs. Drizzle the fillets with half of the olive oil and half of the lemon juice. Set the fillets aside to marinate while you prepare the vegetables.

Step 3: Sauté the Vegetables

Heat the remaining olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for a minute until fragrant. Then, add the halved cherry tomatoes, trimmed asparagus, and halved baby potatoes to the skillet. Season the vegetables with the remaining dried herbs, salt, and pepper.

Step 4: Cook the Salmon and Vegetables

Place the seasoned salmon fillets on top of the vegetables in the skillet. Drizzle the remaining lemon juice over the entire dish and sprinkle the lemon zest on top. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.

Step 5: Serve and Enjoy

Once the dish is finished cooking, carefully remove the skillet from the oven. Garnish the One-pot Lemon Herb Salmon with Veggies with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot. Enjoy this delicious and nutritious meal with your family and friends!
