I always get asked on Instagram how I cook my salmon and 9 times out 10 it is done in my cast iron skillet so I get that crispy outside with a soft inside, but lately I have been feeling this Simple Sheet Pan Salmon in a sweet ginger marinade.

It is an easy way to cook up both the veggies and the salmon together and get both perfectly cooked! I like eating this right away or using it as a part of my meal prep.

Sheet pan salmon dinners make for simple meal prep and easy clean up!

I am a big fan of sheet pan meals because it keeps things super simple and easy AND it keeps the clean up to a minimum. Which for me usually means my girlfriends cleanup is a minimum.

This salmon sheet pan dinner recipe is delicious when enjoyed immediately, but is also great for meal prep. I always take the leftover baked salmon and put it in a meal prep container with some rice or cauliflower rice.

What ingredients should I use to make this healthy baked salmon?

  • Filets of salmon – you can use fresh or frozen salmon filets for this. If using frozen salmon filets, allow them to thaw completely before using
  • Mixed vegetables – you can use frozen stir fry vegetables or fresh vegetables. Use any type of veggies that you like!
  • Grated ginger, pineapple juice, coconut aminos, and sesame oil – use these ingredients to make a sweet ginger salmon marinade
