Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp honey, 1/4 cup fresh orange juice, 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper until well combined and fragrant.
  2. Step 2: On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss 3 peeled and cut carrots, 2 sliced zucchinis, and 1 chopped red bell pepper with 3 tbsp olive oil until evenly coated. Spread vegetables in an even layer.
  3. Step 3: Place 4 salmon fillets skin-side down on the baking sheet among the vegetables. Brush each fillet generously with the citrus-honey glaze.

  5. Step 5: Remove from oven, sprinkle 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley over the top, and serve immediately for a bright, flavorful meal.
