Ready for an easy and impressive salmon dish? This lemon and dill roasted salmon is an easy sheet pan meal you can make any night of the week. I use a lemon and dill vinaigrette to dress the salmon with some veggies on the side. Wild Sockeye Salmon is a clean source of protein with healthy omega-3s and natural minerals. I use it over farm-raised salmon, which could have high amounts of contaminants and saturated fat. The higher fat content makes farm-raised juicier, but it’s not good for you. So, go with the wild if you can. I always have peppers, onions, and cherry tomatoes on hand, but you can add to the veggie mix or use what your family prefers. You’ll have a dinner the whole family will love on the table in no time.

How to make a Lemon and Dill Roasted Salmon Sheet Pan Meal

Preheat the oven to 425 °F, 220 °C.
Place all the veggies in a 9 x 13-inch baking pan or half-sheet pan.
Drizzle olive oil over them and season with salt and pepper.
Toss and push them to one side of the pan.
Place the salmon in the pan and season with salt and pepper.
Combine all the dressing ingredients and whisk until emulsified.
Pour the dressing over the salmon and top with lemon slices.
Bake for 15-20 minutes.
Move the pan under the broiler for about four minutes or until the lemon wedges, salmon, and veggies have slightly browned.
Let sit for about 10 minutes before serving.

Serving

When you pull this pan out of the oven, a beautiful light brothy sauce will have formed on the bottom from the juices of the salmon and veggies. You can spoon it over the fish to help keep it moist… plus, it’s so flavorful! You can make a salad, toast some bread, and call it a day. However, if you prefer dinner to be a bit heartier, serve it with couscous, cauliflower rice, or Mediterranean rice pilaf.
