Honey Garlic Glazed Salmon, Balsamic Glazed Brussels Sprouts and Sweet Potato with Cinnamon Butter and Hot Honey

A flavorful dinner featuring sticky honey garlic glazed salmon, caramelized balsamic Brussels sprouts, and baked sweet potatoes topped with cinnamon butter and a drizzle of hot honey for a sweet-spicy finish.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 (6-oz) salmon fillets, skin-on or skinless, patted dry
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • 3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • Kosher salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • 4 medium sweet potatoes
  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 2 Tbsp hot honey (honey mixed with chili flakes or store-bought)
  • Lemon slices for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the salmon glaze: In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/3 cup honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 Tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp red pepper flakes. Season salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
  2. Cook salmon: Heat 2 Tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add salmon skin-side up, cook 2 minutes until seared. Flip, add remaining 1 Tbsp oil and minced garlic, cook 1 minute. Pour in honey mixture and lemon slices, baste salmon and cook until sauce reduces by one-third, about 3 minutes.
  3. Prepare Brussels sprouts: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss Brussels sprouts with 1 Tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet. Roast 20-25 minutes until crispy. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar and toss to coat in the last 2 minutes.
  4. Cook sweet potatoes: Pierce sweet potatoes with a fork, bake at 425°F for 45-50 minutes until tender. Mix softened butter with 1 tsp cinnamon. Split potatoes, top with cinnamon butter and drizzle with hot honey.

Notes

Use skin-on salmon for crispier results; broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra caramelization. Adjust hot honey spice level to taste. Prep vegetables while salmon cooks to save time.
