Here’s the big takeaway: veggies aren’t just the backup dancers for the salmon. They are the co-leads in a delicious two-person show. Choose veggies that can stand the heat—literally—and that bring contrasting flavors like sweet, bitter, or acidic. A well-charred broccoli floret can make you forget the salmon entirely.
So next time you fire up the oven, remember: that salmon is just the vessel for the real magic happening on the sheet pan. Roast everything until it’s brown, and you’ll never go back. Your taste buds will thank you, and your dinner guests will think you’re a culinary genius—even if you’re secretly just a happy person with an oven and a bag of sprouts.
