Equipment
- baking sheet
- Foil
- medium bowl
Ingredients
Vegetables
- 2 packages refrigerated cooked beets, quartered (about 3 cups)
- 1 medium head broccoli (about 4 cups, cut into bite-size pieces)
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil divided
- 1 teaspoon ground pepper divided
- ¾ teaspoon salt divided
- 6 medium cloves garlic peeled
Salmon and Butter
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter at room temperature
- 3 tablespoons chopped fresh tender herbs (such as tarragon, chives, and/or flat-leaf parsley)
- 4 4-ounce skinless salmon fillets patted dry
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss quartered beets, broccoli pieces, 1 tablespoon oil, ½ teaspoon pepper and ¼ teaspoon salt on a large rimmed baking sheet; spread in an even layer. Place peeled garlic cloves on a small piece of foil; drizzle with the remaining 2 teaspoons oil, wrap tightly and place in the center of the vegetable mixture. Roast until the broccoli is tender, about 15 minutes.
- Combine 4 tablespoons butter, 3 tablespoons herbs and ¼ teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Carefully unwrap the garlic and transfer it to the bowl. Mash with a fork until well combined. Toss the vegetable mixture with about 2 tablespoons of the garlic-herb butter and spread it back out in an even layer.
- Nestle 4 salmon fillets among the vegetables. Season with the remaining ½ teaspoon pepper and ¼ teaspoon salt. Brush with the remaining garlic-herb butter. Roast until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes. Garnish with additional herbs, if desired.
Notes
Leftovers can be stored in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently to avoid drying out.
