Hey there, foodie friends! 👋 Let me share this absolutely divine recipe that’s become my family’s favorite – a mouthwatering Lemon Garlic Butter Salmon with Roasted Mediterranean Vegetables. Trust me, this dish will make you feel like you’re dining at a fancy restaurant while keeping your wallet and waistline happy!
Y’all, I discovered this recipe when I was trying to break free from my takeout addiction (we’ve all been there, right?), and oh my goodness, it’s been a total game-changer! The best part? It only takes 30 minutes to make – faster than waiting for delivery!
Here’s what you’ll need:
– 4 salmon fillets (wild-caught if you’re fancy like that)
– 4 tablespoons butter (real butter, honey – none of that fake stuff)
– 4 cloves garlic (or more if you’re not planning on kissing anyone 😉)
– 1 lemon
– Fresh herbs (I use thyme and rosemary because I’m extra)
– Colorful bell peppers
– Cherry tomatoes
– Red onion
– Zucchini
– Olive oil
– Salt and pepper to taste
Ladies and gents, let’s get cooking!
1. Preheat that oven to 400°F (I know, waiting is the worst part!)
2. Chop those veggies into bite-sized pieces – make them pretty!
3. Toss the vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper, then spread them on a baking sheet
4. In a small pan, melt the butter with minced garlic and lemon juice
5. Place the salmon fillets on another baking sheet, drizzle with the garlic butter sauce
6. Pop everything in the oven – veggies for 20-25 minutes, salmon for 12-15 minutes

Once everything’s done, plate it up by making a bed of those gorgeous roasted veggies and placing the salmon on top. Squeeze some fresh lemon, sprinkle with herbs, and voilà! A restaurant-worthy meal that’s actually good for you!
The salmon should be flaky and tender, and those veggies should have those beautiful caramelized edges that make everything taste like heaven. This is the kind of meal that makes you feel like a total kitchen goddess (or god – we don’t discriminate here!).
