Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh blueberries, divided
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, divided
- 2 (6-ounce) salmon fillets, skin on
- 1 pound baby yellow potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
- 3/4 pound green beans, ends trimmed
- 1/2 head cauliflower, florets trimmed into pieces
- 2-1/2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1/2 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, plus extra to season the salmon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, plus extra to season the salmon
- Aluminum foil
- 2 lemon slices
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Add the potatoes, green beans, and cauliflower to a large bowl and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat.
- Transfer to the baking sheet and spread out in a single layer. Cook for about 20 minutes, tossing once or twice. Remove from the oven and set aside.
- As the vegetables are cooking, add 1/2 cup of the blueberries to a saucepan along with the balsamic vinegar, honey, and remaining 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Cook on medium-high heat (stir a bit to help dissolve the honey) for about 10 minutes or until the blueberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from the heat. Divide the mixture in two.
- Pat the salmon fillets dry and drizzle with 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil. Season with a bit of salt and black pepper.
- Brush half the blueberry glaze over the fillets and place on the baking sheet, skin side down, with the vegetables surrounding them.
- Sprinkle the thyme leaves over the vegetables and salmon. Place one lemon slice on each piece of salmon. Add the remaining blueberries scattered with the vegetables.
- Cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through.
- Remove and use the remaining glaze to brush over the salmon.
- Serve warm.
