Ingredients

  • 1 – 1 ½ lbs salmon fillet
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts (cut in half if small-medium or quartered if large)
  • 1 lb sweet potatoes (peeled and cut into ½ in cubes)
  • 2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
  • ¼ tsp chipotle powder + more for fish (can substitute chili powder instead)
  • ½ tsp garlic powder + more for fish
  • ½ tsp salt + more for fish
  • ½ tsp black pepper + more for fish
  • dried thyme
  • 1 ½ tbs light brown sugar

Maple Mustard Glaze

  • 2 tbs whole grain mustard
  • 1 tbs dijon mustard
  • 1 tbs apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbs real maple syrup

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°.
  • Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or foil (folding the edges up to keep any juices in).
  • Mix ¼ tsp chipotle powder, ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp salt, and ½ tsp black pepper in a small bowl. Add sweet potatoes and Brussels sprouts to lined baking sheet, coat in oil and sprinkle seasonings over.
  • Mix maple mustard glaze ingredients together.
  • Move veggies to edges of the pan, leaving a spot in the middle for the salmon. Add salmon, and season evenly with chipotle powder, garlic powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Add about ½ the glaze on the fish, reserving the rest.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, then remove from oven, and pour remaining glaze over veggies. Stir to coat evenly. Sprinkle brown sugar over the fish. Then bake an additional 5 – 10 minutes until veggies are tender and just browning, and salmon is cooked through.

Notes

I used one large 1 – 1 ½ lb salmon fillet. I find this usually cooks in about 30 minutes at 400° in my oven. You can make this recipe with pre-portioned smaller fillets, but the baking time may need to be shortened for smaller fillets.
