Instructions

Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss sweet potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, 1/4 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 2: Roast sweet potatoes for 15 minutes until edges are golden and tender.
Step 3: While potatoes roast, mix maple syrup, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, and remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a small bowl. Brush mixture over salmon fillets, skin-side down.
Step 4: Place salmon on the same baking sheet with roasted potatoes. Scatter lemon slices around salmon.
Step 5: Return to oven and bake for 10-12 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, brushing with extra glaze halfway through.
Step 6: Garnish with fresh dill and serve immediately with extra lemon wedges.
