Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven

    Preheat the oven to 200 °C / 390 °F. Slice the zucchini and carrot, cut the pepper into strips.

  2. 2

    Pre-roast the vegetables

    Toss the vegetables with the olive oil, salt and pepper, spread on a tray and roast for 20 minutes. Carrot takes longer than salmon, hence the head start.

  3. 3

    Season the salmon

    Meanwhile, pat the salmon dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Finish baking together

    Take out the tray, place the salmon skin-side down among the vegetables and bake for another 12–15 minutes, until it flakes easily in the centre.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Drizzle with lemon juice and serve scattered with fresh herbs.

Tip

The salmon is done as soon as it flakes with a fork — it keeps cooking a little on the hot tray.
