Happy New Year! Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday. We’re starting off this year with a healthy meal…lately I’ve been using my sheet pan to roast whole meals in the oven. Everything from fish to chicken and all kinds of veggies. Such a healthy and easy way to cook with minimal clean up…here’s a tasty meal using wild-caught salmon with the flavors of brown sugar & bourbon…
Roasted Brown Sugar-Bourbon Salmon with Baby Potatoes & Cherry Tomatoes
4 wild caught salmon fillets
extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon bourbon
sea or kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
12 baby potatoes sliced in halves
20 cherry tomatoes (mixed colors if available)
Heat oven to 450ยฐF. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Drizzle olive oil on salmon fillets. In a small jar combine the brown sugar and bourbon with 1/2 teaspoon salt and fresh ground pepper (to taste). Smear brown sugar-bourbon mixture on both sides of salmon. Place baby potatoes halves in a small bowl; toss with some extra virgin olive oil, salt & pepper. Place cherry tomatoes in a second small bowl; toss with some extra virgin olive oil, salt & pepper. Lay potatoes on one side of the sheet pan and roast 8-10 minutes. Bring the sheet pan out of the oven and place the salmon fillets and the cherry tomatoes on the other side of the sheet pan. Roast an additional 8 minutes until tomatoes begin to burst. Makes 4 servings.
Enjoy!

Thank you Chef! You’re right – it was the perfect fish for these flavors. This summer I’d like to make it on a cedar plank on my grill! ๐
