Maple-Mustard Sheet-Pan Salmon

Sheet-pan meals are the ultimate solution for a busy weeknight, and Maple-Mustard Salmon stands out as a sophisticated yet remarkably simple centerpiece. By roasting everything on a single tray, you allow the flavors to mingle while keeping cleanup to an absolute minimum. The magic of this dish lies in the balance of the glaze. The natural sweetness of pure maple syrup cuts through the sharp, vinegary tang of Dijon mustard. This salmon is succulent and flavorful.

  • Yields: 4 - 6 Servings

Ingredients

2 bunches radishes, trimmed, halved, quartered if large

2 pounds peewee or other small potatoes, scrubbed, halved

¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

kosher salt, to taste

freshly ground pepper, to taste

½ cup Dijon mustard

3 Tablespoons pure maple syrup

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1½-2-pounds skinless center-cut salmon fillet

Juice of ½ large lemon

Dill sprigs and lemon wedges (for serving; optional)

Directions

1Place a rack in upper third of oven and preheat to 375° F.. Toss radishes, potatoes, oil, salt, and pepper on a large rimmed baking sheet until vegetables are evenly coated. Arrange in a single layer and roast until potatoes are just fork-tender and starting to brown, 45-55 minutes.

2Meanwhile, whisk mustard, maple syrup, garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of pepper in a small bowl.

3Season both sides of salmon with salt and pepper. Push radishes and potatoes to sides of baking sheet; place salmon in the center. Transfer half of mustard mixture to another small bowl; set aside. Brush remaining mustard mixture over salmon; bake until almost cooked through and opaque, 15-17 minutes. (It might still look undercooked at this point.)

4Heat broiler. Broil salmon and vegetables just until salmon is deeply browned in spots, 3-8 minutes, depending on your broiler. (Keep an eye on the salmon; it can go from golden to burnt within seconds.)

5Whisk lemon juice into reserved mustard mixture and drizzle evenly over salmon and vegetables. Top with dill sprigs and serve with lemon wedges if desired.
