Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 2 teaspoons dried oregano, and 3 minced garlic cloves.
  2. Step 2: On a large rimmed baking sheet, arrange 4 salmon fillets skin-side down in the center. Toss 2 medium sliced zucchini rounds, 1 pint cherry tomatoes, and 1 medium red onion cut into wedges with half the lemon-oregano mixture, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Spread vegetables evenly around the salmon.
  3. Step 3: Brush remaining lemon-oregano sauce over the salmon fillets. Roast everything in the oven for 15-18 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  4. Step 4: Remove from oven and sprinkle 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley over the salmon and vegetables. Serve immediately for a fresh Mediterranean meal.
