Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. Step 2

    Slice 3 medium zucchini into 1/2-inch rounds. Mince 2 garlic cloves.

  3. Step 3

    In a large bowl, toss zucchini with 2 tbsp olive oil, minced garlic, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Spread on the baking sheet.

  4. Step 4

    Place 4 salmon fillets on top of the zucchini. Drizzle with remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, then sprinkle with 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp paprika, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.

  5. Step 5

    Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the zucchini is tender and lightly browned.

  6. Step 6

    Serve hot, spooning any pan juices over the salmon.
