Place salmon in a large baking dish; drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil, sprinkle with lemon zest, and gently rub into flesh.
Season with salt and scatter garlic around.
Bake until salmon is medium-rare(mostly opaque but still slightly translucent in the center), 30-35 minutes.
Meanwhile, combine turnips, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 1 cup water in a large skillet; season with salt and pepper.
Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook until turnips are fork-tender, 15-20 minutes.

While turnips are cooking, remove ribs and stems from Swiss chard leaves.
Thinly slice ribs, stems, and leaves crosswise.

Cook shallot and Swiss chard ribs and stems, stirring often, until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes.
Add Swiss chard leaves and cook, tossing often, until leaves are wilted, about 2 minutes.
Toss in cilantro, parsley, and lime juice; season with salt.
