Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the broccoli florets with half of the olive oil and a pinch of sea salt, then spread them in a single layer on the prepared sheet.
Roast the broccoli for 15 to 20 minutes until the edges are tender and slightly charred.
While the broccoli roasts, pat the salmon fillet dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and pepper.
Heat the remaining olive oil in a stainless steel or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down and sear for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin is crispy and releases easily from the pan.
Flip the fillet carefully and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until the salmon is just opaque and flakes easily.
Plate the salmon alongside the roasted broccoli and finish with a generous squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
