Ingredients

  • 2 medium fennel bulbs (thinly sliced)
  • 1 pound Campari tomatoes (halved)
  • ¼ cup Kalamata olives (pitted and halved)
  • 3 sprigs oregano (plus 1 teaspoon freshly chopped)
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt (plus 1/4 teaspoon)
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil (plus 1/2 teaspoon)
  • 4 5- to 6-ounce skinless salmon fillets
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 375°F.
  2. Toss the fennel, tomatoes, olives, oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon olive oil together on a sheet tray. Place the salmon on top of the vegetables. Season the fillet with ¼ teaspoon salt and the pepper, and drizzle with 1/2 teaspoon olive oil.
  3. Roast until the vegetables are tender and the salmon flesh is opaque and just cooked through, about 30 minutes.  Transfer the salmon to a platter, top with the vegetables, and sprinkle with chopped oregano.
