Instructions

1. 1Mince the fresh garlic and chop the fresh parsley. Cut the green beans into 2-inch pieces and halve the cherry tomatoes. Pat the salmon dry with paper towels.
2. 2In a small bowl, combine the softened salted butter, minced garlic, fresh lemon juice, half the chopped parsley, and black pepper. Mash with a fork into a paste, then spread evenly over the top of each salmon fillet.
3. 3In a large bowl, toss the green beans and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until coated.
4. 4Arrange the salmon fillets skin-side down in a large skillet or on a stovetop griddle. Distribute the seasoned green beans and tomatoes around the salmon.
5. 5Cover the skillet with a lid or foil and cook over medium-high heat for 12–15 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 135–140°F. The flesh should be opaque and no longer translucent at the thickest point.
6. 6Remove from heat and let rest for 3 minutes covered. Sprinkle the remaining fresh parsley over the salmon and vegetables.
7. 7Divide the salmon, green beans, and tomatoes evenly into 4 airtight containers while hot. Let cool to room temperature before sealing and refrigerating.
