Description

An easy and flavorful sheet pan dinner featuring flaky lemon pepper salmon and crispy roasted potatoes, all baked together for a perfect one-pan meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 1.5 pounds baby potatoes, halved
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
  • 2 fresh lemons, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, toss halved potatoes with 2 tablespoons olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
  3. Spread the potatoes on the sheet pan, cut side down. Roast for 20 minutes.
  4. Remove the pan from the oven. Move potatoes to one side and place the salmon fillets on the pan.
  5. Drizzle salmon with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with lemon pepper seasoning. Top each fillet with lemon slices.
  6. Return the pan to the oven and roast for 12-15 minutes, until salmon is cooked through and potatoes are golden brown.
  7. Sprinkle everything with fresh parsley. Optional: broil for 1-2 minutes for extra crispness.
  8. Serve hot with extra lemon if desired.

Notes

  • Cut potatoes evenly for consistent roasting.
  • Dry the salmon before seasoning for better flavor adhesion.
  • Broil at the end for a crispier finish.
  • Use parchment paper for easy cleanup.
