# Expert Suggestions:

01 -
  • Everything cooks on one pan so you spend more time eating and less time at the sink
  • The salmon stays incredibly moist while the vegetables develop those roasted restaurant style edges
02 -
  • Do not overcrowd the pan or the vegetables will steam instead of roast
  • Check the salmon at 18 minutes because overcooked salmon is dry and sad
03 -
  • Pat the salmon completely dry before brushing with oil for better seasoning adhesion
  • Room temperature salmon cooks more evenly than cold from the fridge
