Ingredients
  

For the Maple Glazed Salmon:

4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets

1/4 cup pure maple syrup

2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

Salt and pepper to taste

Lemon wedges (for serving)

For the Roasted Vegetables:

2 cups Brussels sprouts, halved

1 cup baby carrots, sliced in half lengthwise

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 zucchini, sliced into half moons

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon paprika

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the halved Brussels sprouts, sliced carrots, diced bell pepper, and zucchini. Drizzle with olive oil, thyme, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss until the vegetables are evenly coated.

      Roast the Vegetables: Spread the vegetable mixture on a large baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized, stirring halfway through.

        Make the Maple Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper until smooth.

          Prepare the Salmon: Line another baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the sheet. Brush each fillet generously with the maple glaze.

            Bake the Salmon: After the vegetables have roasted for about 20 minutes, place the baking sheet with salmon in the oven. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Brush the remaining glaze over the salmon halfway through cooking.

              Serve: Once everything is cooked, remove from the oven. Serve the maple glazed salmon alongside the roasted veggies, garnished with lemon wedges for an extra burst of flavor.
