Ingredient Notes and Substitutions

  • Salmon: Wild-caught is always best. But farm-raised salmon will work just fine. You could also use cod, halibut, bass, steelhead, or sablefish.
  • Olive Oil: In place of the olive oil you can use avocado oil, melted butter, or melted ghee. (This is my favorite olive oil) code kyndraholley for $5 off
  • Capers: Capers add a nice briny, tart element to the dish. If you do not have capers, you can substitute them with chopped artichoke hearts or green olives.
  • Garlic: Garlic makes everything better! If you do not have fresh garlic on hand, you can also use, jarred garlic, garlic powder, granulated garlic, or dried minced garlic. Even better, add some of this delicious Garlic Confit.
  • Vegetables: Mix and match your favorite vegetables. In addition to the vegetables in this recipe, some of my other favorite vegetables to roast are cauliflower, mushrooms, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, sweet potato and potatoes. (I order my produce here) code kyndra15 for $15 off
  • Herbs and Spices: I love to load this budget friendly sheet pan meal up with lots of fresh dill, but it's also great with basil, rosemary or even thyme.

Protein Variations

  • Fish: In place of the salmon in this Whole30 sheet pan meal, this is also delicious made with halibut, bass, tuna, trout, cod, steelhead, or even catfish. (Easy Seafood Recipes)
  • Chicken: This marinade also works great with chicken. You can use chicken thighs, chicken breasts, or even a whole roasted chicken. (Easy Chicken Recipes)
  • Pork: This easy sheet pan meal works with just about any protein and pork is no exception. I've made it with pork chops, pork roast, and pork tenderloin. Cooking times and temperatures will vary by protein choice. (Easy Pork Recipes)

Vegetable Variations

  • The beauty of a sheet pan meal is that there really are no rules. You can easily swap out the vegetables in this recipe for any of your favorite vegetables. Some of my other favorite vegetables to include in this roasted salmon sheet pan meal are carrots, potatoes, sweet potatoes, cauliflower, mushrooms, asparagus, Brussels sprouts and butternut squash.
