Ingredients
- 4 Salmon fillets

- 1 Red onion, sliced
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon Garlic powder

Prepare the Vegetables
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets, chopped carrots, and sliced red onion with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, thyme, and rosemary. Spread the vegetables in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Roast the Vegetables
Roast the vegetables in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly browned.
Prepare the Salmon
While the vegetables are roasting, pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the salmon fillets and season with salt and pepper.
Bake the Salmon
After the vegetables have roasted for 20 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Place the salmon fillets on the baking sheet alongside the vegetables. Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh herbs, if desired. Serve with lemon wedges.
