Ingredients
Scale
Salmon and Seasoning
- 1 ½ pounds salmon fillet, skin on
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 3 tablespoons Everything Bagel seasoning
- 1 lemon, sliced into rounds
- Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetables
- ½ pound small potatoes, halved
- ½ pound asparagus, trimmed
Garnish
- Fresh dill, for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Prepare the salmon: Place the salmon fillet skin-side down in the center of the sheet pan. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the top of the salmon, ensuring even coverage for flavor and moisture.
- Season the salmon: Evenly sprinkle the Everything Bagel seasoning over the salmon fillet, pressing lightly so the seasoning adheres to the fish.
- Add lemon slices: Arrange the lemon slices over the salmon to infuse it with bright citrus notes and enhance presentation.
- Prepare the potatoes: In a medium bowl, toss the halved potatoes with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, plus salt and pepper to taste, coating them thoroughly.
- Arrange vegetables: Spread the seasoned potatoes evenly on one side of the salmon on the sheet pan. On the other side, place the trimmed asparagus. Drizzle the asparagus with a little olive oil, and season with salt and pepper as desired.
- Roast everything: Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and roast for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the potatoes are tender and golden brown.
- Rest and serve: Remove the sheet pan from the oven and let the salmon rest for a couple of minutes to retain its juices before serving.
- Garnish and enjoy: Sprinkle fresh dill over the salmon and vegetables for a fragrant, herbaceous finish. Serve hot directly from the pan for a casual and delicious meal.
Notes
- You can substitute small potatoes with baby Yukon gold or fingerling potatoes for similar texture and flavor.
- For extra crisp asparagus, consider roasting it for the last 10-15 minutes instead of the full cooking time.
- Everything Bagel seasoning typically contains sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, onion, and salt—adjust seasoning quantity if you prefer less sodium.
- Ensure even thickness of the salmon fillet for consistent cooking throughout.
- Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 2 days and can be reheated gently in the oven or microwave.
