Instructions:
1. Preheat the Oven:
• Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Salmon & Shrimp:
• In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
• Place the salmon fillets and shrimp on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil. Brush the salmon and shrimp evenly with the garlic herb mixture.

3. Prepare the Broccolini:

• Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using) to taste.
4. Make the Garlic Herb Sauce:
• In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, dill (if using), Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth and emulsified.
5. Assemble the Dish:
• Arrange the baked salmon fillets and shrimp on a serving platter.
• Place the sautéed broccolini alongside the salmon and shrimp.
• Drizzle the garlic herb sauce over the fish and shrimp, and garnish with fresh parsley.
6. Serve:
