Method

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
Wash and slice zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and red onion into even pieces; toss with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Pat salmon fillets dry, brush with olive oil, lemon juice, and minced garlic; season with salt and black pepper.
Arrange vegetables around the edges of the pan and nestle the salmon fillets skin-side down in the middle.
Roast in the oven for 15-18 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and vegetables develop golden-brown edges.
Remove from oven, let rest for 2 minutes; sprinkle fresh herbs and serve with lemon wedges.
