Heat the oven to 425°F. Pat 1 lb coho salmon dry, season with 1 teaspoon Morton kosher salt, and refrigerate while you prepare the vegetables.
-
Halve ¾ lb fingerling potatoes lengthwise. Toss with 2 teaspoons olive oil and ½ teaspoon Morton kosher salt; spread cut-side down on a large baking sheet.
-
Trim and halve ¾ lb Brussels sprouts. Toss with 2 teaspoons olive oil and ½ teaspoon Morton kosher salt; set aside.
-
Dice 1 medium Fuji apple and ¼ lb yellow onion. Zest 1 lemon, squeeze 1 tablespoon juice from one half, and cut the other half into serving wedges.
-
Roast the potatoes for 10 minutes. Add the Brussels sprouts to the baking sheet, leaving room around them, and roast for 5 minutes more.
-
Rub the salmon with 1 teaspoon olive oil and place it on a separate baking sheet. After the Brussels sprouts have roasted for 5 minutes, put the salmon baking sheet in the oven. Roast for 10–12 minutes, until the salmon reaches 125°F; remove both sheets and rest the salmon for 3 minutes.
-
While the salmon roasts, heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced apple and onion and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring, until softened. Stir the prepared lemon zest and juice into the apple-onion mixture along with:
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 teaspoons honey
- 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
- ¼ teaspoon Morton kosher salt
Simmer for 2 minutes.
-
Divide the salmon, potatoes, and Brussels sprouts between two plates. Spoon the warm apple-lemon sauce over the salmon and serve with the lemon wedges.
