Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets

2 tablespoons lemon juice

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 cloves garlic, minced

Salt and pepper to taste

1 teaspoon dried thyme (or fresh)

1 pound baby potatoes, halved

2 cups broccoli florets

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh lemon slices for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the potatoes: In a bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on one side of the baking sheet.

      Roast the potatoes: Place the potatoes in the oven and roast for about 15 minutes.

        Prepare the salmon: In a small bowl, mix melted butter, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.

          Add the salmon: After 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet and push the potatoes to one side. Place the salmon fillets on the empty side, and brush the lemon butter mixture generously over each fillet.

            Add broccoli: Toss the broccoli florets in a little olive oil, salt, and pepper, then add them to the baking sheet alongside the salmon.

              Bake everything together: Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the salmon is cooked through, the potatoes are crispy, and the broccoli is tender.

                Serve: Plate the salmon, crispy potatoes, and broccoli. Drizzle any remaining lemon butter over the top and garnish with fresh lemon slices.
