Ingredients

Scale

Salmon and Glaze

  • 4 salmon fillets (about 3–4 oz each)
  • 1 ¼ tsp salt (divided)
  • ¾ tsp black pepper (divided)
  • 1 tsp paprika (divided)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder (divided)
  • 1 tsp onion powder (divided)
  • ¼ cup maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • Juice from ½ fresh lemon
  • Optional: ½ tsp red pepper flakes
  • Optional: Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Vegetables

  • 1 lb petite gold potatoes (halved)
  • ½ lb green beans (trimmed)
  • 10 oz cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil (divided)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Potatoes: Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a 9×13-inch baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Place the halved petite gold potatoes on the sheet and toss them with 2 tbsp of olive oil, 1 tsp salt, ½ tsp black pepper, ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp onion powder until evenly coated. Roast for about 20 minutes until they start to soften and get lightly golden.
  2. Season the Salmon: While the potatoes are roasting, season the salmon fillets with the remaining ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp black pepper, ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp onion powder. Set aside to marinate slightly.
  3. Make the Maple Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, red pepper flakes (if using), and a pinch of salt to create a smooth, flavorful glaze.
  4. Add Vegetables and Arrange on Sheet: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and push the potatoes to one-third side of the pan. Add the trimmed green beans and halved cherry tomatoes to the center third of the pan. Drizzle them with the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil, season with remaining salt and pepper, and toss gently to coat evenly.
  5. Add Salmon and Apply Glaze: Place the seasoned salmon fillets on the last third of the pan, making sure they have space. Generously brush the maple glaze over the salmon, reserving a little glaze for later finishing.
  6. Bake Salmon and Vegetables: Return the sheet pan to the oven and continue baking for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender and cooked through.
  7. Broil for Finish: Brush the salmon with the remaining maple glaze, then switch the oven to broil. Broil the salmon for 1 to 2 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning, to get a caramelized finish.
  8. Garnish and Serve: Remove the sheet pan from the oven, sprinkle fresh parsley over the salmon and vegetables for a bright, fresh touch, and serve warm directly from the pan.

Notes

  • You can swap petite gold potatoes with baby red potatoes if preferred.
  • Red pepper flakes are optional but add a nice subtle heat to the glaze.
  • Use fresh parsley for the best flavor garnish, or substitute with chopped chives.
  • Make sure not to overcrowd the sheet pan to ensure even roasting of vegetables and salmon.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
