For the salmon:

1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
2 1/2-pound salmon fillet
For the green beans:

3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 cup chopped Marcona almonds

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, then coat it lightly with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the paprika, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Add 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, then mix well.

Tips:

  • Use fresh seafood: Fresh seafood will have a better flavor and texture than frozen seafood.
  • Choose a variety of seafood: This will give your dish a more complex flavor and texture.
  • Don't overcook the seafood: Seafood cooks quickly, so it's important to not overcook it. Overcooked seafood will be tough and chewy.
  • Use a good quality olive oil: Olive oil will help to enhance the flavor of the seafood and vegetables.
  • Add some lemon juice: Lemon juice will help to brighten the flavor of the dish and cut through the richness of the olive oil.
  • Season the seafood well: Salt and pepper are essential seasonings for seafood. You can also add other spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Serve the seafood with a variety of sides: Some good sides for seafood include rice, pasta, vegetables, or salad.
