Pan-Seared Salmon with Lemon-Dill Sauce and Roasted Vegetables
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 lemon, juiced and zested
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1/4 cup Greek yogurt
- 1 pound mixed vegetables (such as bell peppers, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes)
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, lemon zest, fresh dill, Greek yogurt, and a pinch of salt. Set aside to let the flavors meld.
- Place the mixed vegetables on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, dried oregano, garlic powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
- Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- While the vegetables are roasting, pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the salmon fillets, skin-side down. Cook for 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked to your desired doneness.
- Serve the pan-seared salmon with the roasted vegetables and drizzle with the lemon-dill sauce. Enjoy!
