Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, honey (if using), salt, and pepper.
Place the salmon fillets in the center of the sheet pan and brush them generously with the marinade.
Arrange the chopped vegetables around the salmon. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss lightly to coat.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and vegetables are tender.
Optionally, broil for an additional 2–3 minutes for added color and texture.
Remove from the oven, garnish with fresh herbs and lemon slices, and serve immediately.

Notes

Use parchment or foil for easier cleanup.Choose firm vegetables that roast evenly with salmon.Marinate salmon briefly for deeper flavor if time allows.Cut vegetables into uniform sizes for even roasting.For meal prep, store in airtight containers and reheat as needed.
