Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the lemon dill marinade over them. Let them marinate for 10 minutes.
- While the salmon is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Place the mixed vegetables on a baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar.

- Place the marinated salmon fillets on a separate baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake the salmon and vegetables in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
- Serve the lemon dill salmon with the roasted vegetables and enjoy!
Lemon Dill Salmon with Roasted Vegetables is a classic dish that combines the rich, flaky texture of salmon with the bright, tangy flavors of lemon and dill. This dish has its roots in the coastal regions of Scandinavia, where salmon is abundant and dill is a popular herb. The dish gained popularity in the United States in the 20th century, particularly in Pacific Northwest regions like Seattle and Portland, known for their thriving salmon fisheries. Chefs like Tom Douglas and Vitaly Paley have put their own spin on this dish, incorporating local Pacific Northwest ingredients and flavors. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in seafood-focused restaurants in coastal regions, where fresh, high-quality salmon is readily available. The key to making this dish shine is to use the freshest salmon possible and to not skimp on the dill and lemon, as they are the stars of the show. For a twist on the classic recipe, consider grilling the salmon instead of roasting it for a smoky flavor.
