Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz each, skin-on or skinless)
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Lemon wedges, for serving
  • 1 pound Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Trim ends from Brussels sprouts and halve (or quarter if large). Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (if using). Spread in an even layer on one side of the baking sheet, cut side down.
  3. Roast Brussels sprouts for 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, whisk together maple syrup, Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon olive oil, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika (if using), and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl.
  5. Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
  6. After 10 minutes, remove baking sheet from oven. Make space for salmon fillets on the empty side. Place fillets skin-side down if using skin-on salmon. Spoon or brush glaze evenly over each fillet.
  7. Return baking sheet to oven and roast for 12-15 minutes, until salmon is just cooked through (internal temp 125-130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for well-done) and Brussels sprouts are crispy and golden.
  8. Optional: Broil for 2-3 minutes at the end for extra crispiness and caramelization. Watch closely.
  9. Transfer salmon and Brussels sprouts to plates. Spoon any extra pan juices over salmon. Serve hot with lemon wedges.

Notes

For best results, use fresh salmon fillets and real maple syrup. Patting the salmon dry helps the glaze stick and ensures crispy skin. Don’t overcrowd the pan—spread Brussels sprouts in a single layer for maximum crispiness. Broil briefly at the end for extra caramelization. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat in the oven for best texture.
