Directions

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 450°F. Toss potatoes with half the olive oil, salt, and pepper on a sheet pan.

  2. 2

    Roast cut-side down for 12 minutes. Meanwhile, stir together 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger and 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce.

  3. 3

    Turn the potatoes, add green beans, and nestle the salmon onto the pan. Spoon the sauce over the salmon.

  4. 4

    Roast for 9–11 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily and is opaque at the center. Add sesame oil and sliced scallions and serve.

  5. 5

    Roast or skillet-crisp the chickpeas until golden and add them during the final five minutes.
