Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Mix 2 tbsp white miso paste, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tbsp maple syrup, and 1/4 tsp salt in a small bowl to form a smooth paste.
  2. Step 2: Pat 2 salmon fillets dry, then spread miso mixture evenly over flesh side. Place skin-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Step 3: Toss 1 lb broccoli florets with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper on the same sheet. Roast for 12 minutes until broccoli is crisp-tender and edges are slightly browned.
  4. Step 4: After 12 minutes, add salmon to the oven. Roast for 10-12 more minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and reaches 145°F (63°C) internally.
  5. Step 5: Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with 1 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 1 tbsp lemon zest, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Serve immediately with broccoli.

How do I store leftover Miso-Glazed Salmon with Lemon-Dill Roasted Broccoli?

How do I scale Miso-Glazed Salmon with Lemon-Dill Roasted Broccoli for a different number of people?
