Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 450F.

  2. 2

    Halve or quarter Brussels sprouts depending on size.

  3. 3

    Slice baby bella mushrooms into quarter-inch slices.

  4. 4

    Mince garlic cloves finely.

  5. 5

    Combine garlic with olive oil in a bowl and mix to infuse.

  6. 6

    Add oregano to the oil and mix well.

  7. 7

    Toss Brussels sprouts and mushrooms with half the garlic oil mixture and transfer to an oven-safe sheet pan or cast iron skillet.

  8. 8

    Roast vegetables for 20 minutes, stirring halfway through.

  9. 9

    Remove pan from oven and arrange salmon on top of vegetables.

  10. 10

    Mix white wine into remaining garlic oil mixture, then spoon over salmon to coat.

  12. 12

    Serve salmon with roasted vegetables.

Tips

Tip 1

Stir vegetables halfway through initial roast to ensure even cooking.

Tip 2

Check salmon doneness by observing flakes with a fork rather than cutting; this prevents drying.

Good to Know

Storage

Refrigerate leftover salmon and vegetables separately in airtight containers for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in 300F oven to avoid overcooking fish.

Make Ahead

Mince garlic and infuse with oil up to 4 hours ahead. Slice vegetables up to 8 hours in advance; store Brussels sprouts and mushrooms separately to prevent moisture absorption.

Serve With

Serve directly from the pan family-style, or plate salmon over vegetables. Pair with a crisp white wine or light salad.

Common Mistakes

Watch

Overcook salmon by not checking flakiness at 15 minutes; use fork test to verify doneness before completing roast.

Watch

Skip stirring vegetables at halfway point; this prevents uneven browning and ensures tender results.
