Print Recipe

A delicious and healthy meal featuring salmon with a sweet and tangy honey mustard glaze, served alongside roasted carrots and maple-glazed sweet potatoes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Salmon:
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp whole grain mustard
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • For the Roasted Carrots:
  • 1 lb carrots, peeled and cut into sticks
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • For the Maple Glazed Sweet Potatoes:
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Prepare the salmon: In a small bowl, mix together Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, honey, and 1 tbsp olive oil. Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper, then brush generously with the honey mustard glaze.
  3. Prepare the vegetables: Toss carrot sticks with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on one baking sheet. In a separate bowl, toss sweet potato cubes with maple syrup, 1 tbsp olive oil, cinnamon, and salt. Spread on the second baking sheet.
  4. Roast the vegetables: Place both baking sheets in the preheated oven. Roast carrots for 20-25 minutes and sweet potatoes for 25-30 minutes, until tender and caramelized, stirring halfway.
  5. Cook the salmon: While vegetables roast, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil and place salmon fillets skin-side down (if skin-on). Cook for 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook another 3-4 minutes, or until cooked through and glazed. Alternatively, bake salmon on a separate sheet at 400°F for 12-15 minutes.
  6. Serve: Plate salmon alongside roasted carrots and maple glazed sweet potatoes. Drizzle any extra glaze from the pan over the salmon.

Notes

For a crispier salmon skin, start cooking skin-side down and do not move the fillet for the first few minutes. You can substitute regular mustard for whole grain if needed. Adjust maple syrup and honey to taste preference.
