Maple Mustard Baked Salmon 🍯🐟

Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 1 lb sweet potatoes scrubbed and sliced into ¼-inch thick rounds
  • Avocado oil or olive oil cooking oil spray
  • Sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 2 Tbsps maple syrup or raw honey
  • 3 tsps apple cider vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp grass-fed butter or ghee
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 fresh garlic cloves minced
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes or to taste
  • 2 skinless salmon filets

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees f. and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Place your sweet potato slices on the prepared pan and spray or mist lightly with cooking oil.
  • Season with sea salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Roast for 15-18 minutes, or until just beginning to become tender.
  • Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, add the maple syrup, vinegar, butter, mustard, garlic, and pepper flakes.
  • Simmer for 3-4 minutes while whisking constantly, or until it's reduced by half and thickened a bit.
  • Once your potatoes are done, remove from the oven, flip potatoes over, and create some space on your sheet pan for the salmon filets.
  • Baste the salmon generously with your maple-mustard glaze and roast for 10-12 minutes, or just until the salmon is flaky and the sweet potatoes are golden-brown.
