Sheet Pan Salmon, Fennel, & Sweet Potato
I love having delicious sheet pan recipes on hand for this time of year! It's always busier and this is a delicious recipe that is easy to throw together. Plus it incorporate sweet potatoes which  are a fall favorite for a reason—they're packed with nutrients and health benefits! They’re an excellent source of beta-carotene, which our bodies convert into vitamin A, helping boost eye health and the immune system. They're also high in fiber, aiding digestion and helping to keep you feeling full longer.

Ingredients:
  • 2 Sweet Potato (Japanese, small, cubed)

  • 1 bulb Fennel (sliced thin)
  • 
1 Yellow Onion (large, chopped into large wedges)
  • 
1 tbsp Avocado Oil (divided)
1/2 tsp Sea Salt (divided)

  • 1 1/2 tbsps Fresh Oregano (chopped, divided)
  • 
1 lb Salmon Fillet

  • 1/2 cup Green Olives (pitted)

  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
Instructions:
  1. Preheat the oven to 425ºF (215ºC). 
  2. Place the sweet potato, fennel, and onion on a large baking sheet. Add 2/3 of the oil and season with half of the salt and half of the oregano. Toss to combine. 
  3. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through. 
  4. Remove the baking sheet and add the salmon. Drizzle the salmon with the remaining oil, salt, and oregano. Return to the oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, depending on thickness, or until cooked through. 
  5. Scatter the olives on the baking sheet and squeeze lemon juice over top of everything. Divide evenly between plates and enjoy!
