Spiced Salmon with Roasted Sweet Potatoes and Rosemary-Citrus Glaze

A simple yet flavorful dish featuring salmon fillets pan-seared to perfection, paired with sweet and savory roasted sweet potatoes and a tangy rosemary-citrus glaze.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound salmon fillets, skin on or off
  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Toss diced sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  2. Roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
  3. While the sweet potatoes roast, whisk together orange juice, lemon juice, honey, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened (about 5 minutes).
  4. Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear salmon fillets for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
  5. Drizzle the rosemary-citrus glaze over the cooked salmon and serve immediately with roasted sweet potatoes.
