Steps For Making Sheet Pan Salmon and Broccoli

1. Pat salmon dry. Use good quality paper towels to soak out the excess moisture from the fish.

2. Season the salmon. Rub olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika on both sides of the fish whether you’re using a big piece of fish or portioned fillets.

3. Place the salmon on a sheet pan. The sheet pan should be lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

4. Season the broccoli. Toss the broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

5. Place broccoli on the sheet pan. Arrange the broccoli on the sheet pan.

5. Bake. Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for a few minutes until the fish is cooked through.

How To Tell Salmon Is Done

A simple way to tell if salmon is done is to flake the fish with a fork. If the fish flakes easily then it is done.

Also, you could use an instant-read digital thermometer to test the fish for doneness. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the fish. If it reads about 130 degrees Fahrenheit then the fish is done.

Variations

• Use another vegetable: Try using other vegetables like zucchini, brussels sprouts, or bell peppers in this recipe.
• Use a different fish: Instead of salmon, you could use different kinds of fish like trout, whiting fish, snapper, tilapia, and so on.
• Use different seasonings: Try seasoning your fish with other kinds of seasoning like Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, or any seasoning you like.
• Steam the broccoli instead: This is for those who don’t like roasted broccoli. Only one of my girls enjoys roasted broccoli. So you could cook the salmon in the oven and then steam or saute the vegetable instead.
