Ingredients
  

  • olive oil
  • 2 Salmon filets appx. 6-8 ounces each
  • salt and papper
  • 2 fresh lemons one sliced - one juiced into the honey
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 and 1/2 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 and 1/2 cups baby carrots
  • 1 large russet or Idaho potato cleaned and cut up into about 1/2 inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes or 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley divided

Instructions
 

  • Turn on your oven and set it at 450°. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray or wipe it with olive oil. Or use a nonstick one. Clean and cut it up the potatoe(s) and put the pieces on the baking sheet skin side down along with the broccoli and baby carrots. Drizzle everything with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Put the honey in a bowl, squeeze in the lemon juice and add the parsley flakes. Then whisk it all together with the brush that you are going to use to apply it to the salmon. Lay the Salmon filets out on the sheet skin side down. If the filets have been skinned just look for the side that is flatter and has a pale gray stripe in the middle and lay that side down on the pan. Brush them generously with the honey lemon mixture and cover with the lemon slices.
  • Put it in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the carrots are soft to poke with a table fork and/or the salmon wants to easily flake when you poke it with the fork. Then just sprinkle with a little bit of parsley flakes. Serve it and sit down and enjoy your Honey Lemon Baked Salmon Weeknight Dinner.
