Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Chop potatoes and halve Brussels sprouts, then spray with avocado oil and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika. Toss well and bake on the lower rack for 12 minutes.Hint: Make sure potatoes are cut evenly for consistent cooking!
Pat salmon dry with paper towels and season with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.Hint: Drying the salmon helps the glaze stick and prevents steaming.
In a small bowl, mix olive oil, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and minced garlic. Brush the mixture evenly over the top and sides of the salmon. Place salmon on the middle rack with the veggies and bake for 12–14 minutes.Hint: Check the thickest part of the salmon for flakiness — lower temps = tender, higher temps = firmer.
Check that potatoes are fork-tender, then plate everything together. Enjoy immediately or store leftovers in an airtight container for make-ahead meals!Hint: Leftover salmon is perfect flaked over whole grains, pasta salad, or fresh green beans!
