Ingredients

Scale

4 salmon fillets, skin on, about 6 ounces each
1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 lemon, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.
In a large bowl, toss the trimmed green beans with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder until evenly coated.
Spread the green beans in a single layer on one side of the prepared sheet pan.
In the same bowl, combine the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Rub this mixture evenly over the salmon fillets.
Place the salmon fillets skin side down on the other side of the sheet pan, next to the green beans.
Arrange the lemon slices evenly over the salmon fillets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the green beans are tender-crisp.
Remove the sheet pan from the oven and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the salmon and green beans.
Serve immediately, spooning any pan juices over the salmon.
