Ingredients
  

  • 4 salmon fillets, 6 oz each
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried dill
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 lemon, sliced
  • ¼ cup vegetable broth

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup effortless for busy weeknights.
  2. Arrange halved baby potatoes on the prepared sheet pan, drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast for 12 minutes before adding remaining ingredients so potatoes soften properly throughout cooking.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, minced garlic, dried dill, remaining olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper. This simple marinade flavors your entire sheet pan salmon family summer dinner recipe.
  4. Remove the hot pan from the oven, add broccoli florets and red bell pepper slices around the potatoes. Drizzle vegetables with half the marinade, toss gently to coat everything evenly for balanced seasoning.
  5. Place salmon fillets skin-side down among the vegetables, brush with remaining marinade, top with lemon slices. Roast for exactly 13–15 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches 145°F internally.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven and let rest for 2 minutes before serving to allow flavors to settle. Garnish generously with fresh chopped parsley and serve immediately while everything steams gently.
