    – 12 baby potatoes (about 12 oz), scrubbed
    – 2 cups grape tomatoes (about 10 oz), halved if you like
    – 6 oz broccoli florets
    – 3 tbsp fresh minced garlic (about 5 to 6 cloves)
    – Quality Extra Virgin Olive Oil

    – 2 tsp Za’atar spice, divided, plus more for later
    – 1 tsp coriander, divided
    – 1 lb salmon fillet, no skin
    – 1 lemon, juice of

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

    In a large bowl, add the potatoes, tomatoes, and broccoli. Pour 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil and toss. Then, add a little salt and pepper, 1 tbsp minced garlic, 1 tsp za’atar spice, 1/2 tsp coriander. Toss again. Transfer the vegetables to a large baking sheet with a rim. Cover with aluminum foil, bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes.

    Pat salmon dry. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle just a little extra virgin olive oil. Spread the remaining garlic evenly on top. Sprinkle the remaining za’atar and coriander.

    Cut seasoned salmon into 4 equal pieces, and place on the prepared baking sheet with the vegetables. Add another generous drizzle of extra virgin olive oil over the salmon and veggies, if needed.

    Bake in heated oven for 15 minutes. Remove from heat and squeeze lemon juice on salmon. Sprinkle more za’atar all over.

    Enjoy with rice and a side of your favorite salad!
