Roasted salmon with green beans is the perfect weeknight meal and would also be impressive when entertaining. It’s delicious, super easy, and ready in less than an hour. I have a big family, so I need one sheet pan for the salmon and one sheet pan for the green beans. However, if you have a smaller family, you can put the salmon and green beans all on the same pan. Clean up will be even easier!

Tips and tricks
I start with the green beans because they take a little bit longer to cook than the salmon. Be sure to get green beans that are bright green and without blemishes. I find them at the supermarket or Costco that have already been trimmed, but it only takes a few minutes to trim them. They’re less expensive if you buy them from the bulk bin and trim them, but you’ll save time with pre-trimmed. Choose which is better for you.
As for the Salmon, I buy a big fillet and cut it into portions. Your butcher will even portion it for you if you ask. It’s okay if you find quality salmon pre-sliced. The important thing is just to make sure it’s quality salmon.
How to make Roasted Salmon and Green Beans
- Preheat the oven at 425 °F, 220 °C.
- Wash the green beans and pat them dry. Trim the rough edges from both sides.
- Place the green beans in a baking tray and spread them in an even layer.
- Drizzle the beans with oil and season with salt and black pepper. Toss. Roast them for 25-35 minutes or until fork-tender.
- Place the salmon on a baking sheet pan.
- Add the oil, vinegar, lemon juice, and garlic to a bowl and whisk together.
- Pour it over the fish. Season the fish with salt and black pepper on both sides and toss the fish around the marinade to coat.
- Roast for 15-20 minutes. Turn the broiler on for the final 4 minutes.
Serving
You know how I feel about feta cheese. So, I have to recommend serving this with feta sprinkled on your green beans. Since you’re already roasting the green beans, you can add some roasted potatoes, cauliflower, and/or tomatoes. One of my favorite things to serve with salmon is spinach rice pilaf. The options are endless, so choose your favorite. Kali Orexi!
