This easy maple Dijon salmon sheet pan dinner is loaded with roasted veggies, sweet and savory flavor, and can be ready in 30 minutes. A healthy, high-protein nutrient packed meal for busy weeknights.
Preheat oven to 400-degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Add Brussels sprouts, squash, and onion to the baking sheet. Toss with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 20 minutes.
While the veggies are baking, make the glaze. Add the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, vinegar, garlic, and paprika to a mason jar, or other lidded container. Cover and shake vigorously.
After the veggies have baked for 20 minutes, remove from oven. Stir veggies and push to one side of the pan so you have room for the salmon. Add the salmon filets, skin side down, and brush the salmon with about ⅔ of the maple Dijon glaze (set aside about ⅓ to drizzle on cooked salmon and veggies-- keep separate from raw salmon glaze to avoid cross-contamination).
Return pan to oven and bake for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until veggies are roasted to your liking and salmon is cooked through (see notes).
Drizzle with remaining maple Dijon glaze. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Choose larger Brussels so they cook evenly with the squash. Keep separate on the baking sheet from squash and onions so you can remove if they finish early.
Use pre-cut butternut squash to save time - trim if needed to ensure pieces are uniform.
Pat salmon dry before brushing with glaze.
According to the USDA, salmon should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145-degrees F for well done. If you like your salmon on the more medium side, cook until the internal temperature reaches about 125/130-degrees. Keep in mind it will rise about 5-degrees as it sets.
