Instructions

1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). On a large baking sheet, toss the diced sweet potatoes and trimmed green beans with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, dried rosemary, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Spread them in a single layer.
2
Place the baking sheet with vegetables in the preheated oven and roast for 15 minutes. This gives the denser vegetables a head start.
3
While the vegetables are roasting, pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and minced garlic for the glaze.
4
After the vegetables have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the vegetables to one side, creating space for the salmon. Arrange the salmon fillets on the empty side of the baking sheet. Brush the top of each salmon fillet generously with the maple glaze.
5
Return the baking sheet to the oven and continue to roast for another 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.
6
Carefully transfer the maple-glazed salmon, roasted sweet potatoes, and green beans to plates. Serve immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use different vegetables?

Yes, you can substitute other quick-cooking vegetables like broccoli florets, asparagus spears, or bell pepper strips. Adjust roasting times as needed, ensuring they are tender-crisp by the time the salmon is cooked.

How do I know when the salmon is cooked?

Salmon is cooked when it flakes easily with a fork and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Be careful not to overcook it, as it can dry out quickly.

Can I prepare the glaze ahead of time?

Yes, the maple glaze can be whisked together and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. This can save time on busy weeknights.
