# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly oil for nonstick surface.
02 - In a large bowl, combine halved baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Arrange potatoes evenly on the prepared sheet pan and roast for 15 minutes.
03 - While potatoes are roasting, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, parsley, dill, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Pat the salmon fillets dry and coat thoroughly with marinade.
04 - After 15 minutes, remove sheet pan from oven. Add red onion wedges, red bell pepper slices, and trimmed green beans. Drizzle with remaining tablespoon olive oil, season with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Toss vegetables to coat and distribute evenly.
05 - Nestle marinated salmon fillets among the vegetables, skin-side down if using skin-on fillets. Return pan to oven and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, until salmon flakes easily and vegetables are tender.
06 - For a crisper finish, broil on high for 2 minutes, watching closely to avoid burning.
07 - Transfer salmon and vegetables to plates. Garnish with lemon wedges and extra fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately.
