Salmon With Root Vegetables Recipes

SHEET PAN SALMON AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. 2. Chop all of the vegetables and spread them over a large rimmed baking sheet in a single layer. Drizzle the vegetables with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil (or more if it seems like they need it) and sprinkle with 3/4 teaspoon of sea salt. Note: You want the vegetables to have a nice coat of oil to protect them from burning during the baking process, but there shouldn't be so much oil that they are soggy. 3. Roast the vegetables on the center rack of the preheated oven for 15 minutes. 4. While the vegetables are roasting, coat the salmon filets with avocado oil, then sprinkle with sea salt, garlic powder, and paprika. 5. Remove the vegetables from the oven and give them a thorough stir (I use a metal spatula for this). 6. Make room on the sheet pan for the salmon (simply scoot the vegetables away from the center). Place salmon filets on the baking sheet then bake for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through. For crispy salmon skin, place the oven on the high broil setting for 3 to 5 minutes at the end. Salmon is considered fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. You can also tell salmon is cooked through when the center is completely opaque and light pink. Do note that the exact cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fish, so for the best result, use a meat thermometer to test the internal temperature. 7. Serve salmon and vegetables with fresh lemon slices and enjoy!

ROASTED SALMON WITH ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• Coat 2 foil-lined baking sheets with non stick cooking spray.
• Arrange carrots, parsnips, and brussel sprouts evenly on first baking sheet.
• Drizzle with 2 Tbs olive oil and sprinkle with 1 Tbs of Italian seasoning and 1 tsp each of salt and pepper.
• Arrange beets on half of the second baking sheet and roll up in foil making a pouch.
• Place salmon filets on remaining half of sheet; lightly coated with the remaining 3Tbs olive oil.
• Sprinkle with remaining salt and pepper and drizzle with lemon juice.
• Bake the sheet with carrots and veggies 35-45 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.
• Bake the salmon sheet pan for 15 minutes or until the fish flakes with a fork.
• Transfer vegetables to a platter and top with the salmon.

PEPPERED SALMON WITH ROASTED ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a roasting pan, combine carrots, beets, half the oil and half the salt. Roast, uncovered, for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through. (My veggies weren't done until about 30 minutes because I like them crispier. You choose how crispy you like your veggies!) Transfer to a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, sprinkle salmon with the remaining salt and all of the pepper. If you like more pepper, feel free to add more! In a 12 inch skillet heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add salmon and cook for 3 minutes. Turn and cook for 3 minutes more or until fish flakes easily, which may take a little more time depending on your heat.
• Transfer the salmon to the platter with your vegetables. Add juice concentrate and 2 Tablespoons water to the skillet you used for the salmon. Simmer, uncovered, about 1 minute or until thickened. Spoon the sauce over salmon. Optional = sprinkle chopped green onions over everything.
• Enjoy!
