Start by preparing the marinade using basil pesto, garlic powder, black pepper, lemon pepper, paprika, thyme, and canola oil.

Brush the marinade on both sides of the salmon.

Slice the yellow potatoes and season them with the remaining marinade, extra canola oil, black pepper, and salt to taste.

Mix the potatoes well and set them aside.

Prepare the veggies: chop broccoli, bell pepper, and carrots, and season with lemon pepper and extra black pepper.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

Place the seasoned potatoes in the oven and bake for 40 minutes.

After 30 minutes, add the salmon to the oven and bake for 10 minutes.

After 7 minutes of the salmon cooking, add the veggies to the oven and cook for 3 minutes.

While everything cooks, prepare the gravy by mixing cornstarch with hot water and letting it simmer.

Add butter, lemon juice, and sweet chili sauce to the gravy, and let it thicken for about 2 minutes.

Once everything is cooked, transfer the potatoes to a serving dish to keep warm until serving.
