Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6 oz each) salmon fillets
• 2 cups grape tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 pieces (minced) garlic cloves
• 1 whole lemon
• 2 tablespoons (chopped) fresh parsley
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons (optional) red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Brush this mixture over the salmon fillets evenly.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, toss the grape tomatoes with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.

Step 5

Scatter the seasoned grape tomatoes around the salmon fillets on the baking sheet.

Step 6

Slice the lemon into thin rounds and tuck the slices around the salmon and tomatoes for added flavor.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 15-18 minutes, depending on the thickness of the salmon fillets. The salmon is done when it flakes easily with a fork and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 8

Once roasted, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the salmon and tomatoes for garnish.

Step 9

Serve hot, optionally accompanied by roasted vegetables, a salad, or your favorite grain like quinoa or rice.
