Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each)

1 lemon (zest and juice)

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 cup asparagus, trimmed

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix together the lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, dried oregano, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.

      Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a large bowl or a shallow dish. Pour half of the marinade over the salmon, ensuring each fillet is well-coated. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes.

        Prep the Veggies: In a separate bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, zucchini, red bell pepper, and asparagus. Add the remaining marinade and toss to coat the vegetables evenly.

          Arrange on Sheet Pan: On a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place the marinated salmon in the center and arrange the vegetables around the fish in a single layer.

            Bake: Transfer the sheet pan to the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the veggies are tender.

              Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, and serve hot. Enjoy your delicious and healthy meal!
