Salmon Roasted with Miso Vinaigrett­e

-

Serves 4

Miso vinaigrett­e:

¼ cup olive oil 2 tablespoon­s white miso 2 tablespoon­s mirin or rice vinegar Juice of ½ lemon 1 tablespoon honey ½ teaspoon chile paste 1 clove garlic,

minced Salt and pepper, to taste

Salmon:

¾ to 1 pound vegetables, trimmed into bite-sized pieces 4 salmon fillets, 4 to 6 ounces each

1. Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil and set aside.

2. Mix the vinaigrett­e ingredient­s. Taste and adjust seasoning to your preference.

3. Place the vegetables in a large bowl. Season them with salt and pepper and toss them with half the vinaigrett­e.

4. Arrange the vegetables on the prepared sheet pan. Nestle the salmon fillets in among the vegetables, season with salt and pepper and pour the remaining vinaigrett­e over the fish.

5. Roast the salmon and vegetables for 10 minutes, then check every 4 to 5 minutes until they are roasted to your preference. As a general rule of thumb, salmon fillets will require about 5 minutes of roasting per ½ inch of thickness. If you like more carameliza­tion and crispy edges on your vegetables, you can remove the salmon, then broil the vegetables for 2 to 3 minutes more.
