How to Serve This sheet pan salmon wraps Recipe

These sheet pan salmon wraps are fantastic served immediately while the salmon and vegetables are still warm. They’re great as is, but a few simple additions can really elevate the experience.

Consider offering a variety of toppings, such as diced avocado, sour cream or Greek yogurt, a squeeze of fresh lime juice, and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro. A drizzle of your favorite hot sauce can add a fiery kick. Serve with a side of quinoa or brown rice for a more substantial meal.

How to Store This sheet pan salmon wraps Recipe

If you have any leftover sheet pan salmon wrap components, store them separately for best results.

• Salmon and Vegetables: Transfer the cooked salmon and vegetables to airtight containers and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
• Tortillas: Store the tortillas in a sealed plastic bag at room temperature.
• Reheating: Reheat the salmon and vegetables in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through. You can also reheat them on a sheet pan in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for a few minutes. Warm the tortillas before assembling the wraps. As another great tip, Sheet Pan Salmon Wraps uses a completely different heating strategy, so you could try that one out for great success as well.

Tips to Make This sheet pan salmon wraps Recipe

• Don’t crowd the pan: Make sure the vegetables are spread in a single layer, not overlapping. Overcrowding will cause the vegetables to steam instead of roast, resulting in soggy veggies.
• Adjust cooking time: Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of your salmon and the type of vegetables you use. Keep a close eye on the pan and adjust accordingly.
• Spice it up: Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking or use a different chili powder for a unique flavor.
• Add some acid: A squeeze of lemon or lime juice over the salmon and vegetables after cooking brightens up the flavors.

Helpful Notes for This sheet pan salmon wraps Recipe

• Salmon: I prefer using skin on salmon fillets for this recipe because the skin helps keep the salmon moist during baking. However, you can use skinless fillets too.
• Vegetables: Feel free to use other vegetables that you enjoy, such as broccoli florets, asparagus spears, or sliced mushrooms.
• Tortillas: You can use any type of tortilla you like such as whole wheat, corn or gluten free tortillas.

Variation of This sheet pan salmon wraps Recipe

• Spicy Mango Salsa Wraps: Omit the smoked paprika and cayenne pepper. After baking, top the salmon and vegetables with a fresh mango salsa for a sweet and spicy twist.
• Mediterranean Wraps: Use Mediterranean spices. Serve with hummus, feta cheese, and olives.
• Lemon Herb Wraps: Instead of the paprika and garlic powder, use fresh herbs such as dill, parsley, and thyme, along with lemon slices.
