Pat salmon dry. Skin scored. Rub with 1 tbsp lemon pepper + a pinch of salt.
Add broccoli to the tray. Add salmon, skin side up. Lemon slices around.
Back in oven, 12 minutes. Done when salmon flakes.
Why pre-boil the potatoes
Raw baby potatoes need 35-40 minutes in the oven. Salmon needs 12. Pre-boiling for 8 minutes lets them all finish together. Otherwise, the salmon overcooks waiting for the potatoes.
Variations
Cod or sea bass. Same method, fish needs only 10 minutes.
Asparagus version. Sub broccoli for asparagus. Add at the same time as salmon.
Cherry tomato version. Add 200g halved cherry tomatoes with the salmon.

Storage
Best fresh. Leftover salmon flakes well into a salad next day with lemon mayo + capers.
