Ingredients
- 1½ lbs Salmon

Seasoning Mix/Marinade
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 tsp Onion Powder

Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix together the ingredients for the seasoning mix/marinade.
- Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish or plastic bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are evenly coated. Let the salmon marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 400℉ and spray a large baking sheet with the non-stick cooking spray, or line with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
- While the oven is preheating and the salmon is marinating, slice the bell peppers and onion into thin strips and arrange them on the prepared baking sheet.
- Season your sliced vegetables with the minced garlic and a little bit of salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the salmon has finished marinating, remove it from the refrigerator and place the fillets on the baking sheet on top of the sliced veggies.
- Drizzle any remaining marinade over the dish, ensuring it is evenly coated.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and the veggies are tender.
- Remove the sheet pan from the oven and garnish with optional toppings such as cilantro, avocado, or lime juice. Enjoy!
