Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Season the salmon generously on both sides with the salt and pepper.
Mix all of the ingredients for the marinade in a small bowl.
Arrange the salmon on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the salmon fillets with some of the dressing.
Arrange the vegetables around the salmon in a single layer. Toss the vegetables with half of the marinade.
Roast for 20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the vegetables start to get a slight char and are crisp-tender.
Drizzle the rest of the marinade over top and garnish with fresh dill, a squeeze of lemon and some cracked black pepper.

Notes

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Reheating: I recommend reheating this in a pan on the stovetop, in the oven, or in an air fryer.
Thaw Salmon Properly: If using frozen salmon fillets, make sure they are completely thawed and patted dry before seasoning and cooking.
Uniform Vegetable Sizing: Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking. This helps avoid some pieces getting overcooked while leaving others undercooked.
