INGREDIENTS:

• 1 head of broccoli cut into florets (about 3 cups)
• 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• kosher salt and pepper to taste
• 2 4oz salmon filets
• 1 tbsp avocado oil, ghee, coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil divided. I used this Avocado Oil
• Kosher salt and pepper to taste
• 2 tsp dijon mustard
• 1 lemon sliced. Halve 3 slices, quarter the remaining slices

DIRECTIONS:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prep a large baking sheet – cover with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
2. Place the broccoli florets on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tbsp of extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with desired amount of kosher salt and pepper. Mix together to coat and arrange the broccoli to cover 3/4 of the pan to leave room for the salmon. Place the lemon slice quarters over the broccoli.
3. Place the salmon skin down on the baking sheet. Drizzle each piece with 1/2 tbsp of avocado oil (or oil of choice). Sprinkle with desired amount of kosher salt and pepper. Spread 1 tsp dijon mustard on top of each salmon piece. Place 3 lemon slice halves on each piece of salmon.
4. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
