how To Make The Best Salmon Dinner

Craving this simple salmon dinner yet? Here’s how it comes together.

Prep the Pan and Potatoes
Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Add the halved potatoes to the sheet pan, toss with olive oil and seasonings, and roast until they begin to soften and lightly brown. This gives them a head start before everything else goes in.
Add the Vegetables
Once the potatoes are partially cooked, add the green beans and cherry tomatoes to the pan, drizzle with olive oil, and season. Keep everything spread out so the vegetables roast evenly.
Make the Maple Dijon Glaze
Whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and crushed red pepper if using. This simple glaze adds delicious flavor!
Add the Salmon
Place the salmon fillets on the open section of the pan and brush with the maple Dijon glaze. Reserve a little of that yummy glaze for brushing on at the end.
Finish and Serve
Return the pan to the oven until the salmon flakes easily. Brush with the remaining glaze, broil for a bit of color, finish with fresh parsley, and enjoy!

FAQs

What if my salmon fillets are different sizes?

That’s totally fine! Thinner pieces may finish a little sooner, so keep an eye on them and pull them off early if needed.

Can I use frozen salmon?

Yes, just make sure it’s fully thawed and patted dry before seasoning so it roasts properly.

Can I swap the vegetables?

Absolutely. Broccoli, asparagus, or Brussels sprouts all work well, just keep the pieces similar in size so everything cooks evenly.

How do I know when the salmon is done?

The salmon should flake easily with a fork and look opaque throughout. If it still looks translucent in the center, give it another minute or two.

Variations For this recipe

Not feeling green beans or tomatoes? Try asparagus, broccoli, bell peppers, or zucchini, just keep everything cut to a similar size so it roasts evenly.
Make it a little spicier! Add an extra pinch of red pepper flakes to the maple-Dijon glaze for a little more heat.
No gold potatoes? Baby red potatoes, fingerlings, or even sweet potatoes work great here, just cut them small so they cook through.
Swap the protein! This glaze is also GREAT on chicken breasts or chicken thighs, just adjust the cook time as needed.

Maple Dijon Sheet Pan Salmon with Veggies

Yield: 4 servings

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 35 minutes

Total Time: 45 minutes

This Maple Dijon Salmon with Veggies is all cooked on one sheet pan, so it’s super easy with minimal cleanup. The salmon gets a brush of sweet, tangy maple-Dijon glaze, and the potatoes, green beans, and cherry tomatoes roast right on the pan too. It’s simple, tasty, and perfect for a busy weeknight!

Ingredients

4 salmon fillets (about 3-4 oz each)
3 tbsp olive oil, divided
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
¾ tsp black pepper, divided
1 ¼ tsp salt, divided
¼ cup maple syrup
1 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 lb petite gold potatoes, halved
½ lb green beans, trimmed
Juice from ½ fresh lemon
10 oz cherry tomatoes, halved
Optional: ½ tsp crushed red pepper
Optional: Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F and line a 9x13” baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the halved potatoes with 2 tbsp olive oil, ½ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper, ½ tsp paprika, ½ tsp garlic powder, and ½ tsp onion powder. Spread them out on the sheet pan and roast for about 20 minutes, until they start to soften and get lightly golden.
While the potatoes are roasting, season your salmon fillets with ¼ tsp salt, ¼ tsp pepper, and the leftover paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Set aside.
Once the potatoes are ready, push them to one side of the pan. Add the green beans and cherry tomatoes to the middle, drizzle with the last tablespoon of olive oil, season the remaining salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
Whisk together the maple syrup, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, optional crushed red pepper, and ¼ tsp salt to make your glaze. Trust me, this is where the magic happens!
Place the salmon on the empty third of the pan and brush generously with the maple glaze. Save a little for later.
Pop the sheet pan back in the oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily.
Brush the salmon with the remaining glaze, then broil for 1–2 minutes for that perfect caramelized finish. Watch it closely so it doesn’t burn!
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve warm. Seriously, this is one-pan dinner perfection!

Notes

Salmon choice: I like using skinless fillets for this, but skin-on works too, just place the skin side down on the pan.
Don’t overcook: Salmon cooks fast! Check at 12 minutes and bake longer only if needed. You want it just cooked and flaky.
Storage Tips: Store any leftover salmon and veggies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Meal prep friendly: This recipe makes great leftovers for lunch the next day. I like keeping the salmon and veggies together so everything reheats evenly.
