This sheet-pan dish is not only a complete, balanced meal, itโsย also a celebration of veggies. The salmon fillets are petite, which showcases how veggies can be the star of the dish. If you preferย more caramelization (browning) of veggies and salmon, place theย pan under the broiler for a minute or two before removing it fromย the oven.
For extra flair and a bit of crunch, consider sprinklingย with salted roasted pepitas at serving time. Youโll have plenty ofย the scrumptious sauce for drizzling over this mealโeven if youย include a bonus grain side or make a salad bowl with leftovers.
Tip:ย Transform leftoversย into a Nicoise saladโaddย lettuce, olives, red onion,ย and a hard-boiled egg.

Prep Time 18 minutesCook Time 45 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 pound fingerling potatoes, halved lengthwise
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, divided
- 1 bunch asparagus (12 ounces), ends trimmed
- 1 1/2 cups sugar snap peas (optional)
- 4 petite (4- to 4 1/2-ounces each) salmon fillets with skin
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
spicy citrus miso sauce
- 1/3 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons white miso paste
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons maple syrup
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 small serrano chili, extra-thinly sliced crosswise
garnish
- 1/4 cup packed small fresh cilantro leaves with tender stems
- 1 lime sliced (optional)
Directions
-
Arrange racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and preheat toย 400ยฐF.
On a large rimmed sheet pan lined with parchment paper, tossย the potatoes with 1 1โ2 tablespoons of the olive oil and 1โ4 teaspoon of theย salt. Arrange the potatoes cut-side down and roast on the upper rackย until golden brown, about 25 minutes.
Flip over the potatoes and push them to one side of the pan. Thenย place the asparagus spears, snap peas (if using), and salmon filletsย (skin-side down) on the other side of the pan. Brush the vegetables andย salmon with the remaining 1 1โ2 tablespoons of olive oil and season withย the remaining 1โ4 teaspoon of salt and the pepper. Bake on the lowerย rack until the fish is just firm in the center and flakes with a fork, and theย vegetables are bright green and tender, 18 to 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, prepare the sauce. Whisk together the orange juice, limeย juice, miso, olive oil, maple syrup, garlic, and salt in a small bowl until theย miso has dissolved. Stir in the chili. Set aside.
Arrange the salmon and veggies on a platter. Spoon half of theย spicy citrus miso sauce over the warm salmon and veggies. Top with theย cilantro and lime slices (if using). Serve with the remaining sauce on theย side.
Sauce will last in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up toย a week.
