Description
Salmon with a honey mustard glaze is one of those weeknight dinners that looks impressive but takes about ten minutes of actual work. The glaze caramelizes under high heat while green beans and potatoes roast alongside. You get a complete dinner from one pan, and the sweet-tangy sauce on the fish is the kind of thing kids and adults both go for.
Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 4 salmon fillets (6 ounces each), skin-on
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
- 12 ounces green beans, trimmed
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.
- Toss the halved potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on the baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes to give them a head start.
- While the potatoes roast, whisk together the Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, honey, soy sauce, garlic, and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Push the potatoes to one side. Toss the green beans with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper and add them to the pan. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the center.
- Brush the honey mustard glaze generously over the top of each salmon fillet.
- Return to the oven and roast 12 to 15 minutes until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the green beans are tender-crisp.
- Garnish with fresh dill and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
- Starting the potatoes first ensures everything finishes at the same time — they need more time than the fish and green beans.
- Skin-on salmon is easier to handle on a sheet pan and the skin peels right off after roasting if you do not want to eat it.
- The glaze can be mixed up to 2 days ahead and stored in the fridge, making this even faster on a busy night.
