Lemon Dill Baked Salmon with Garlic Roasted Veggies

Ingredients
  • 1 large filet of salmon (enough for 4 servings)
  • ¼ c olive oil (or melted butter)
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 10 cracks fresh black pepper
  • 2 or 3 tsp fresh dill (dry is fine too, but fresh is nicer!)
  • 1 lemon, half sliced into thin wheels,
    the other half quartered
  • 2 medium celery root, peeled and cubed
  • 1 red pepper, sliced
  • 1 yellow pepper, sliced
  • 1 fennel bulb, cubed
  • 1 red onion, cubed
  • 1 leek (including the green top!), sliced
  • 1 small delicata squash, seeded and sliced (if they are not available, substitute a medium zucchini)
  • ½ c cashews (raw)
  • Drizzle of olive oil
  • 1 tsp garlic granules
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • 2 c fresh salad greens

Step by Step Instructions

Step 1

Heat oven to 395°.

Prepare celery root, peppers, fennel, onion, leek, and delicata as noted above and place them in a large bowl with the cashews. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic granules and mix well then pour onto a parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer and pop them into the oven and set a timer for 25 minutes.

Step 2

Place salmon on another parchment lined baking sheet and ensure that the parchment is large enough to fold around the fish like an envelope.

 In a small bowl mix olive oil with dill, salt, and pepper then use a pastry brush to spread the mixture over the salmon filet. Place lemon wheels on top of the fish and wrap the parchment around the fish securing it with a metal clip, then set aside.

 Step 3

When the timer goes off for the veggies reduce the heat in the oven to 350° and pop the salmon into the oven alongside the sheet of veggies and bake for 20 minutes.

When everything is done slice the salmon into 4 pieces and serve along with a wedge of lemon to each of 4 plates. Add about 1/2 c of salad greens to each plate and top the bed of greens with a serving of roasted veggies. Now sit down and enjoy the beautiful flavors of this satisfying dinner!
