Sheet-Pan Maple–Mustard Steelhead + Roasted Brussels Sprouts & Fuji Apple–Cabbage Slaw
A bright, wintery sheet-pan dinner: steelhead roasts quickly alongside Brussels sprouts, then gets finished with a maple–mustard glaze and a crunchy apple-cabbage slaw. This avoids the beet/citrus steelhead dish you had recently (no beets, no citrus-forward profile, different sides and sauce).

- Olive oil 2–3 tbsp

Instructions
- Heat oven to 425°F. Line a sheet pan with foil or parchment.
- Roast sprouts: Halve Brussels sprouts if whole. Toss with 1–1 1/2 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper. Roast 12 minutes.
- Add steelhead: Push sprouts to the sides. Place steelhead in the center, skin-side down if it has skin. Season with salt and pepper. Roast 8–12 minutes more, until the thickest part flakes easily and the sprouts are browned.
- Make glaze: Stir Dijon + maple + 1 tbsp vinegar. Brush over steelhead for the last 2 minutes of roasting (or brush right after it comes out for a punchier flavor).
- Make slaw: Shred cabbage; toss with sliced apple and a little onion. Dress with 1 tbsp olive oil + 1 tbsp vinegar + salt/pepper (and dill if using).
- Serve: Plate steelhead with roasted sprouts and crunchy apple slaw.
Health notes: High protein + omega-3s; lots of fiber from sprouts/cabbage. Keep maple modest if watching sugar.
Drink pairing: WA Chardonnay (unoaked) or a crisp pilsner.
