How to Make Savory Miso-Maple Glazed Salmon with Crisp Green Beans

1. Preheat Oven

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup later.

2. Season Salmon

Season the salmon fillets generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, ensuring the seasoning is evenly distributed on all sides. Place them on a plate or a large shallow bowl while you prepare the marinade.

3. Prepare Marinade

In a small bowl, whisk together 4 teaspoons of maple syrup, 1 tablespoon of miso, 1 tablespoon of rice wine vinegar, 2 teaspoons of soy sauce, and 1 grated garlic clove. Make sure the mixture is smooth and well combined.

4. Marinate Salmon

Pour the marinade over the salmon fillets, making sure each piece is well-coated. Let the salmon sit and absorb the flavors while your oven continues to preheat.

5. Prepare Green Beans

In a medium bowl, toss the trimmed green beans with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, a pinch of red-pepper flakes if you like a bit of heat, and 1/4 teaspoon of toasted sesame oil if you're using it. Season the green beans with a touch of salt and pepper to enhance their natural flavor.

6. Arrange on Sheet Pan

Arrange the marinated salmon fillets skin side down on the prepared sheet pan. Scatter the seasoned green beans around the salmon, ensuring they are spread out in a single layer for even cooking.

7. Bake Salmon and Green Beans

Place the sheet pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 12 minutes. The salmon should turn opaque and flake easily with a fork, and the green beans should be tender yet still crisp.

8. Serve

Once the salmon and green beans are perfectly cooked, remove them from the oven. Sprinkle the dish with roughly chopped cilantro. Serve each fillet with a wedge of lime to squeeze over the top. Optionally, sprinkle a bit of flaky sea salt for an extra touch of flavor. Consider serving with a side of cooked white rice.

Variations

Protein Swaps

Use the miso-maple glaze on alternatives like chicken, pork, tofu, tempeh, or different fish varieties.

Cooking Technique Tweaks

Experiment with grilling, stir-frying, or other methods instead of roasting or pan-searing.

Glaze Variations

Create hoisin-sriracha, honey-garlic, or balsamic-herb glazes for diverse flavor profiles.

Vegetable Alternatives

Pair the glaze with asparagus, Brussels sprouts, broccoli, or cauliflower.

Soy Glaze Variation

Swap out half of the maple syrup for soy sauce or tamari for a deeper umami flavor.
