Ingredients
  

The Base:
  • 2 lbs Fresh salmon fillets approx. 4-5 large fillets, skinless.
  • 16 oz 1 bag Extra-fine frozen green beans (Do not thaw!).
  • 12-15 Cherry tomatoes halved.
  • Optional: Thin lemon slices seeds removed to top the fish.
The Signature Glaze (Salmon Marinade:)
  • 3 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil.
  • 3 tbsp Natural Silan Date syrup or honey.
  • 3 tbsp Freshly squeezed lemon juice.
  • 1 tbsp Smooth Dijon mustard.
  • 3 Garlic cloves minced.
  • 1/2 tsp Smoked or sweet paprika.
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt or 3/4 tsp if using coarse salt and a pinch of black pepper.
  • For the adults: 1/2 tsp Red pepper flakes to be added separately.
The Veggie Seasoning:
  • 3 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil.
  • 1.5 tbsp Balsamic vinegar.
  • Zest of one medium lemon.
  • 1/2 tsp Sea salt.

Method
 

  1. Preheat: Heat your oven to 200°C (400°F). For best results, use the convection (fan) setting.
  2. Season the Veggies: On a large, rimmed baking sheet, toss the frozen green beans and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and lemon zest. Spread them out in a single layer, leaving space in the center for the salmon.
  3. Whisk the Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together all the marinade ingredients (except for the red pepper flakes).
  4. Arrange & Coat: Place the salmon fillets in the center of the pan. Generously brush each fillet with the glaze, ensuring they are fully coated.
  5. Customize for the Family: * Sprinkle red pepper flakes only on the adult portions.
    Top each fillet with a thin lemon slice. This adds aroma and serves as a great visual marker for the spicy vs. mild pieces!
  6. Bake: Roast for 15-20 minutes. The salmon should be opaque and flake easily with a fork, and the green beans should be tender-crisp with a slight char.
    Pro Tip: For a deeper caramelization, switch to the "Broil" setting for the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  7. Serve: Transfer the pan directly to the table and serve immediately.
