Ingredients

  • 150 g Salmon
  • 80 g Broccoli
  • 0.5 medium Zucchini
  • 0.5 medium Bell Peppers
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 0.5 fruit Lemons
  • 0.5 tsp Sea Salt
  • 0.25 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

  1. 1
    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
  2. 2
    Cut the broccoli into florets, and slice the zucchini and bell peppers into bite-sized chunks. Mince the garlic.
  3. 3
    Place the salmon fillet in the center of the baking sheet and arrange the broccoli, zucchini, and bell peppers around it.
  4. 4
    In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, sea salt, and black pepper.
  5. 5
    Drizzle the oil mixture evenly over the salmon and vegetables. Use your hands or a fork to toss the vegetables slightly so they are coated.
  6. 6
    Slice half the lemon into rounds and place them on top of the salmon.
  7. 7
    Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender.
  8. 8
    Squeeze a little extra fresh lemon juice over everything before serving immediately.

Chef's Tips

  • For crispier vegetables, broil for the last 1-2 minutes of cooking.
  • Ensure the salmon fillet is similar in thickness throughout for even cooking.
