Salmon and Broccoli is one of my favorite 20 minute sheet pan dinners. Sustainably caught Wild Alaskan Coho Salmon paired with a low-carb friendly lemon butter garlic sauce and broccoli make for the perfect Keto dinner.

Do you like salmon? I mean I love my Air Fryer Salmon recipe, salmon with shallot sauce, and let’s not forget black bean salmon croquettes! But sometimes I’m looking for an easy sheet pan dinner. Like this sheet pan salmon and broccoli.

If one of your goals is to eat healthier I have a delicious recipe for you. It’s low-carb, high-fat and perfect if your on the Keto diet. Or any diet where you need the high-fat/low-carb meal! This recipe for sheet pan Lemon Butter Garlic Salmon with Broccoli dinner is perfect. My family absolutely LOVED this dinner, and best of all it was made in under 30 minutes. This makes for the perfect weeknight dinner! We tend to eat seafood on Mondays or Fridays in my home–some weeks we eat it multiple times in a week.

Ingredients

  • Coho Salmon Filet – One large fillet works best for this recipe.
  • Salted Butter – This will help season the salmon; however, unsalted butter works too.
  • Garlic – You can use fresh garlic or minced garlic in water.
  • Parsley – Fresh parsley to mix with the garlic and butter.
  • Lemon – A lemon for juicing and slices.
  • Broccoli – Fresh chopped broccoli.

Directions

For this recipe you’ll preheat the oven. While the oven heats make the butter mixture.

Spray a baking sheet (affiliate link) with nonstick cooking spray. Then place the salmon on one side of the baking sheet, and the broccoli on the other side. Pour half the butter mixture on top of the salmon, and the rest on the broccoli. Toss the broccoli until well coated. Place lemon slices on top of salmon. 

Bake the salmon for 15 minutes or until the salmon is fork tender. Once it’s done remove it from the oven, divide evenly among plates and enjoy!

What is Sitka Salmon Shares?

I recently received a box from Sitka Salmon Shares. They deliver premium, sustainable, wild Alaskan seafood from the fishermen directly to members’ doorsteps!

  • Wild-caught from the pristine waters of Southeast Alaska and the North Pacific
  • Sustainable: Harvested using hook-and-line methods to minimize negative ecological impact.
  • Traceable: Our relationships ensure that your fish is traceable to the boats of our fishermen-owners and trusted community partners.
  • Fishermen-centered: Individually caught by one of our fisherman-owners or partner fishermen (who we hope are on their way to ownership!). Fishermen ownership makes us distinct from our competition and creates a more just system that values hard work, high-quality fish and low-impact harvesting methods.
  • Just: Our fishermen receive an average of 20-30% more for their harvest, which can equate to $10,000 extra income in a given season.
  • Premium: Blast-frozen at the peak of freshness to ensure the highest quality, guaranteed.
  • Convenient: Home delivered directly to your door, with recipes and a newsletter about the fishermen who caught that month’s share.
  • Conscious: Carbon offsets purchased and 1% of revenue donated to efforts promoting small-scale fisheries and conservation in Alaska.

Tips & Tricks

Here are a few of my favorite tips and tricks I’ve learned when making a salmon sheet pan dinner.

  • Vegetables – Any vegetables can really work for a salmon sheet pan dinner. I just prefer to use broccoli.
  • Herbs – I like to use fresh parsley, but fresh thyme, chives, even oregano or rosemary would work.
  • Salmon – You can use frozen salmon for this recipe. Just add on an additional 5-10 minutes to the cooking time.

Sides to go with Salmon?

Whenever I make salmon I always pair it with a few vegetables and a starch depending on the mood of the evening.

  • Potatoes and Cauliflower Mash
  • White bowl of green beans with garlic divided up close.

    This was great… Simple and tasty. I love Sitka Salmon Shares… so much more than Salmon too! I didn’t have parsley but added a little seasoning salt. Thanks for the recipe.
