Ingredients

  • 4 fillets salmon fillets
  • 2 bell peppers
  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes
  • ½ cup black olives
  • 1 lemon
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup basil leaves
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Slice 2 bell peppers into strips and halve 1 pint cherry tomatoes. Place them on a large baking sheet.

  2. 2

    Drizzle the vegetables with 2 tbsp olive oil and 1/2 tsp salt. Toss to coat, then spread in an even layer. Roast for 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Remove the sheet from the oven. Push vegetables to the sides and place 4 salmon fillets in the center. Drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp salt.

  4. 4

    Scatter 1/2 cup black olives over the vegetables. Return to oven and bake until salmon is opaque and flakes easily, about 12-15 minutes.

  5. 5

    Slice 1 lemon into wedges. Serve salmon and vegetables with lemon wedges and 1/4 cup fresh basil leaves scattered on top.
