Ingredients
  

4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon sea salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

Zest of 1 lemon

Juice of 1 lemon

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1 pound fresh broccoli florets

1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy clean-up.

    Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary. This will be your marinade for the salmon.

      Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets on one side of the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle half of the marinade over the salmon, making sure to coat each piece evenly.

        Prepare the Broccoli: In another bowl, toss the broccoli florets with balsamic vinegar, a pinch of salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Spread the broccoli on the other side of the baking sheet, ensuring they are in a single layer for even roasting.

          Roasting Time: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Roast for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the broccoli is slightly crispy and tender.

            Garnish and Serve: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let it rest for a couple of minutes. Garnish the salmon with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your Savory Citrus Herb Roasted Salmon with Crispy Broccoli!
