Lemon-Herb Baked Salmon

Cherry tomatoes and Kalamata olives roast under the salmon and turn jammy in its juices. It is a one-pan argument for eating more fish, and it eats like a restaurant plate.

Steps

  1. Heat the oven to 400°F. Toss the tomatoes and olives with half the olive oil and half the salt in a baking dish; roast 10 minutes.
  2. Nestle the salmon among the tomatoes. Whisk the remaining olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper; spoon over the fish.
  3. Roast 12 to 15 minutes more, until the salmon flakes at 145°F. Serve with the roasted tomatoes spooned over.
Tip: Give the tomatoes a ten-minute head start before the salmon goes in. They need the extra time to slump and sweeten.
