Ingredients
  

  • 1.25 lb baby potatoes quartered into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 tbsp olive oil divided
  • 1 tsp kosher salt divided
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper divided
  • 12 oz broccoli florets, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 0.5 tsp garlic powder
  • 1.5 lb salmon fillet cut into 4 portions about 1 inch thick
  • 1 lemon cut into wedges

Equipment

  • 1 18x13-inch rimmed sheet pan

Method
 

  1. Heat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Line an 18x13-inch rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper.
  3. Toss the potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Spread the potatoes in a single layer on the pan.
  5. Roast the potatoes for 20 to 25 minutes, until they are beginning to brown and are nearly tender.
  6. Toss the broccoli with 1/2 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/8 teaspoon black pepper, and the garlic powder.
  7. Arrange the broccoli on the pan beside the potatoes.
  8. Pat the salmon dry and brush it with the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil.
  9. Season the salmon with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper.
  10. Place the salmon on the pan beside the vegetables.
  11. Roast for 12 to 15 minutes, until the salmon reaches 145°F in its thickest part and flakes easily and the broccoli is tender.
  12. Serve with the lemon wedges.

Notes

For the best texture, spread the potatoes in a single layer and avoid crowding the pan. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 3 days; freezing is possible, though the potatoes may soften when thawed.
