Ingredients

1 cup Broccolini washed
1/2 cup Sweet Potatoes washed, peeled and diced
2 tbsp olive oil
6 oz Salmon
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Wash and rinse sweet potato and broccolini. Set aside broccolini.
Peel and cut sweet potato into bite size pieces or desired size.
Once cut, place sweet potato and broccolini on a lined baking sheet and drizzle olive oil over top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Place potatoes and broccolini in the oven and roast.
The sweet potatoes will take about 30 minutes to roast or until they are soft and golden. Broccolini will take about 10-15 minutes.
While the vegetables are cooking, sprinkle salt and pepper on salmon.
Preheat skillet on stove on medium heat to cook salmon. Once heated, place salmon non-skin side down on the pan to get a nice sear.
Allow salmon to cook for a few minutes on this side then flip over. Cook salmon to desired doneness making sure the internal temperature reaches at least 145 degrees F (this can be checked via a meat thermometer).
