This Easy Salmon Lemon Recipe is a healthy and delicious meal that’s perfect for a quick weeknight dinner. The salmon is baked with baby potatoes and green beans, and it’s all coated in a flavorful lemon-herb sauce.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice (juice of one lemon)
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 lb salmon filet
  • 2 cups baby potatoes
  • 2 cups green beans

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Cut the baby potatoes in half. Microwave potatoes for 2-3 minutes, until fork-tender.
  2. Make Sauce: While potatoes heat, in a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon, honey, and spices.
  3. Assemble: Line a baking sheet with foil. Lay the salmon filet in the middle of the sheet. Add green beans and potatoes to the baking sheet.
  4. Drizzle and Bake: Drizzle the olive oil/spice mixture over the top of the salmon, green beans, and potatoes. You can toss the potatoes and green beans so they are evenly coated. Bake at 425 degrees F for 15 minutes.
  5. Broil and Serve: Broil for 3-5 minutes until the salmon is lightly browned.

Notes

  • Salmon: You can use a salmon filet with or without skin.
  • Potatoes: You can use any type of potato you like, but baby potatoes are recommended for their quick cooking time.
  • Green Beans: You can use fresh or frozen green beans.
  • Broiling: Keep a close eye on the salmon while broiling, as it can burn quickly.
  • Serving: Serve this dish with a side salad or your favorite vegetables.
