Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and salt and pepper to taste. Place on one side of a large rimmed baking sheet in a single layer and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes until almost tender.
- Step 2
While the potatoes cook, prep the green beans and salmon. Toss the green beans with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Season the salmon with salt and pepper, and squeeze the juice from 1/2 a lemon over each filet and slice the remaining half lemon. Brush the filets with the remaining olive oil and place the sliced lemon over the top of the filets.
- Step 3
When the potatoes are almost tender, add the salmon and green beans to the same baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 10-15 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the salmon registers 140 degrees. Cooking time will vary based on the thickness of your salmon.
