Springtime green beans and mushrooms have been on sale recently, so I decided to pair them with some clearance sockeye salmon fillets from my freezer for an easy sheet pan dinner recipe.
Sheet Pan Salmon and Green Beans with Lemon Garlic Butter
Ingredients
1 lb salmon fillets
1/2 lb fresh green beans
8 oz white or baby bella mushrooms, sliced
Sea salt, to taste
Black pepper, to taste
3 Tbsp butter
3 garlic cloves, chopped
Juice of 1/2 a small lemon
1 tsp dried parsley
Directions
Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Slice mushrooms and trim green beans, then arrange the salmon and veggies on the baking sheet, keeping the salmon skin-side down. Season your fish with sea salt & pepper.
Melt butter over medium-low heat, add garlic and saute another minute, then remove from heat and stir in lemon juice and parsley.
Brush fish generously with lemon garlic butter, then drizzle the rest over veggies and toss to coat. Bake at 425 degrees for 14 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.

This was so good! Simple and easy to throw together. The lemon butter adds a nice kick to the vegetables. I added a head of broccoli as I had some leftover in the fridge and it was excellent. I'll be adding it to my family's regular rotation.
Thank you for making meal planning simpler! I truly value the time you put into this!

I tried it last night, super easy and tasty. I'm always hesitant to cook fish, because I'm not sure how. This definitely took the guesswork out of it! I used thawed frozen green beans, and added grape tomatoes on the side of the pan to roast at the same time---delish!
