When salmon is cooked right, it should flake easily with a fork. Another sign is the flesh changing from translucent to opaque. This change shows that it's done.

If you prefer, transfer each portion to individual plates. For sides, consider white rice or quinoa. A fresh salad also pairs well. These options balance the meal and add more color. {{image_2}} You can switch up the veggies based on what you have. Seasonal vegetables work great and add color. Try zucchini, bell peppers, or asparagus. Starchy vegetables like sweet potatoes or butternut squash make a filling dish. They will need more time in the oven, so cut them small. This way, they cook evenly with the salmon. If you want to try chicken or tofu, go for it! Place them on the same sheet pan as the salmon. Chicken should be cooked until it reaches 165°F. Tofu cooks faster, so keep an eye on it. Bake chicken for about 25-30 minutes. Tofu will need about 15-20 minutes, just like the salmon. Change the flavor by using different herbs. For an Italian twist, use basil and thyme. You can also add chili flakes for some spice. This will give your dish a nice kick. Mix and match herbs to find your favorite blend. Experiment to discover new tastes! To keep your leftovers fresh, place them in an airtight container. Glass or plastic containers work well. Make sure to let the food cool down before sealing it. This helps prevent moisture buildup. Store the container in the fridge. Use the leftovers within three days for best taste. You can freeze the cooked salmon and veggies for later meals. First, let everything cool completely. Then, wrap the salmon and veggies in foil or plastic wrap. Place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. Make sure to squeeze out all the air. This helps prevent freezer burn. When you’re ready to eat, thaw them in the fridge overnight. Reheat them in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through. In the fridge, your garlic herb salmon and veggies will last about three days. In the freezer, they can stay good for up to three months. For the best flavor, try to eat them sooner rather than later. Yes, you can use frozen salmon. Cooking frozen salmon takes a bit longer. Make sure to thaw it in the fridge overnight for best results. If you cook it from frozen, add about 5-10 minutes to the bake time. Always check that it cooks evenly. Overcooked salmon looks dry and flaky. It loses its bright color and becomes pale. If it breaks apart easily with a fork, it may be overcooked. Ideally, salmon should be moist and tender. Aim for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). This dish pairs well with many sides. You can serve it with rice, quinoa, or a green salad. Roasted potatoes or couscous also work great. For a refreshing touch, add a light cucumber salad.
