A wholesome and vibrant sheet pan roasted salmon recipe featuring tender salmon fillets roasted alongside a colorful medley of vegetables. This easy, one-pan meal combines fresh asparagus, portobello mushrooms, bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion, all seasoned with a flavorful garlic butter and oregano sauce, then finished with briny olives for a Mediterranean-inspired touch.

Ingredients

Salmon and Vegetables

  • 2 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)
  • 1 bunch asparagus, trimmed
  • 1/2 lb portobello mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup olives (preferably Kalamata or black olives, pitted)
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 zucchini, juiced and sliced
  • 1 red onion, sliced

Garlic Butter Sauce

  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Arrange Salmon and Vegetables: Place the salmon fillets in the center of a large baking sheet. Arrange the asparagus, portobello mushrooms, green and red bell peppers, zucchini slices, and red onion evenly around the salmon, either mixed together or separated according to preference. Keep olives aside for later.
  2. Prepare Garlic Butter Sauce: In a small jar or bowl, combine the melted butter, olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and pepper. Shake well or whisk thoroughly until the mixture is fully blended.
  3. Coat with Sauce: Drizzle the garlic butter sauce evenly over both the salmon and surrounding vegetables, ensuring everything is well coated to enhance flavor during cooking.
  4. Roast the Dish: Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C). Roast for 25 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
  5. Add Olives and Garnish: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and gently toss the roasted vegetables with the olives. Garnish with fresh cilantro or parsley if desired, then serve immediately for a warm and delicious meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute the olives with capers for a slightly different briny flavor.
  • Make sure not to overcook the salmon; it should flake easily but remain moist inside.
  • If you prefer, use fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary instead of oregano.
  • For added zest, squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice over the salmon before serving.
