1 pint grape tomatoes (cut in half)

3 Tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon kosher salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

4 cloves garlic (minced)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400˚ and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.

Place salmon fillets on the prepared sheet pan and place halved tomatoes around the salmon.
