When I'm tired and lazy, which is every night, I love making dinner on a sheet pan. Also, if you use parchment paper, you don't even have to clean the pan. The recipe calls for dried herbs, but I used fresh from my herb garden. I know certain people on the east coast will be rolling their eyes. It's meant to be 90° F in Los Angeles today. We want FALL!

  • Prep: 10 mins
  • Cook: 20 mins
  • Yields: 4 Servings

Ingredients

12 baby zucchini, cut in half lengthwise

2 tablespoons olive oil

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the salmon

2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 cloves garlic, minced

½ teaspoon dried dill

½ teaspoon dried oregano

¼ teaspoon dried thyme

¼ teaspoon dried rosemary

Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

4 (5-ounce) salmon fillets

2 tablespoons parsley, chopped

Directions

1Preheat oven to 400° F. Lightly oil a baking sheet or coat with nonstick spray.

2In a small bowl, whisk together brown sugar, lemon juice, Dijon, garlic, dill, oregano, thyme and rosemary; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.

3Place zucchini in a single layer onto the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add salmon in a single layer and brush each salmon filet with herb mixture.

4Place into oven and cook until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 16-18 minutes.*

5Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

We love the combination of sweet but a little spicy! We grilled it and it was divine!
