Ingredients
  

For the Maple Glazed Salmon:

4 salmon fillets (6 oz each)

1/3 cup pure maple syrup

2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

1 tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tbsp olive oil

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tsp fresh ginger, grated

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh thyme or parsley, for garnish

For the Roasted Veggies:

1 medium zucchini, sliced

1 red bell pepper, chopped

1 cup broccoli florets

1 cup baby carrots, halved

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 tsp balsamic vinegar (optional for a tangy finish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, soy sauce, Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper until well combined.

      Marinate the Salmon: Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish, pour the marinade over them, and let them marinate for at least 20 minutes, turning occasionally.

        Toss the Veggies: While the salmon is marinating, prepare the vegetables. In a large bowl, combine sliced zucchini, red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and halved baby carrots. Drizzle with olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and optional balsamic vinegar. Toss to coat the veggies evenly.

          Roast the Veggies: Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes.

            Bake the Salmon: After the veggies have roasted for 15 minutes, remove the baking sheet from the oven. Create space for the salmon fillets in the center of the veggies and place the marinated salmon fillets on the sheet. Drizzle a little extra marinade over the salmon if desired.

              Roast Together: Return the baking sheet to the oven and roast everything for an additional 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the veggies are tender and slightly caramelized.

                Serve: Garnish the glazed salmon with fresh thyme or parsley and serve hot alongside the roasted veggies. Drizzle any remaining marinade over the dish for an added flavor boost.
