Can I bake salmon with vegetables on the same pan?

The answer

Yes, and a sheet pan dinner works well if you stage the cooking. Give dense vegetables such as potatoes and carrots a head start, often 15 to 25 minutes, add medium ones like broccoli partway, and put quick-cooking vegetables such as asparagus in with the salmon for the final stretch. Do not crowd the tray, since steam prevents browning, and use two trays if you need to.
