MAPLE AND MISO SHEET-PAN SALMON WITH GREEN BEANS



Maple and Miso Sheet-Pan Salmon With Green Beans image

For a weeknight salmon that's impressive enough for entertaining, look no further. Salty miso paste and sweet maple syrup are the backbone of this simple, flavor-packed marinade, which is about as involved as this uncomplicated recipe gets. Here, the fish soaks up the sauce as the oven gets hot, and the snappy green beans roast in the same amount of time as the fillets. Start some rice when you walk in the door and you'll have dinner on the table in under a half hour.

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 (6-ounce) skin-on salmon fillets, about 1-inch thick
Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper
4 teaspoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon white or brown miso
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 garlic clove, grated
1 pound green beans, trimmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
Pinch of red-pepper flakes (optional)
1/4 teaspoon toasted sesame oil (optional)
1/4 cup roughly chopped cilantro, both leaves and tender stems
4 lime wedges, for serving
Flaky sea salt, for serving (optional)
Cooked white rice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment paper or foil. Season the salmon fillets well with salt and pepper, and place them on a plate or in a large shallow bowl.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the maple syrup, miso, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce and garlic. Pour the mixture on top of the salmon and gently massage the marinade all over the fish. Let marinate while the oven comes to temperature.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, toss together the green beans with the olive oil, red-pepper flakes and sesame oil (if using) and season generously with salt and pepper. Lay the salmon fillets on the sheet pan skin side down and spread the green beans out surrounding the fillets.
  • Arrange the salmon skin side down on the sheet pan and bake until the salmon is opaque and the green beans are cooked through, about 12 minutes. Right before serving, scatter with cilantro and a good squeeze of lime. Season with flaky sea salt and serve with rice, if desired.

MAPLE BAKED BEANS

Categories     side-dish

Time 7h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound dry red kidney beans
2 quarts water
1 large yellow onion, cut in eighths
1 bay leaf
6 whole black peppercorns
3/4 cup medium amber pure maple syrup
1/2 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
1/2 cup ketchup
1 tablespoon Chinese chili paste
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon kosher salt
5 ounces thick-cut smoked bacon, cubed

Steps:

  • Place the beans in a large bowl and cover with cold water by 1-inch and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight. Drain and rinse the beans and then drain again.
  • Place the beans in large pot with 2 quarts water, the onion, bay leaf, and peppercorns. Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for about 50 minutes, or until tender. A good test is to scoop up several beans in a spoon and blow on them: if the skin starts to peel off, they're done. Drain the beans, reserving the cooking liquid.
  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
  • In a small saucepan, whisk together the maple syrup, brown sugar, ketchup, chili paste, ginger, salt, and 1 1/2 cups of the cooking liquid, still reserving the remaining liquid. Bring to a simmer and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes.
  • Transfer the beans to a medium Dutch oven or a bean pot. Push half the bacon into the beans and place the rest on the top. Pour the maple syrup sauce over the beans. Place the lid on top and bake for 6 to 8 hours. Check occasionally; if the beans are too dry, add 1/2 cup more of the cooking liquid. If you like, you can remove the lid for the last 30 minutes to thicken the sauce. Discard the bay leaf. Serve hot.

Since my husband raises hogs and my parents produce maple syrup, this recipe's a natural for me! I usually prepare Maple Baked Beans just for us during the winter. In summer, I'll often make it for family picnics and get-togethers.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Beans: Select high-quality beans for the best texture and flavor. Use dried beans for a more rustic dish or canned beans for a quicker meal.
  • Soak Your Beans: Soaking dried beans overnight or for at least 8 hours helps reduce cooking time and makes them more digestible.
  • Use Good Quality Maple Syrup: Opt for pure maple syrup for the best flavor. Avoid pancake syrup or flavored syrups, as they contain artificial ingredients.
  • Don't Overcook the Beans: Overcooked beans become mushy and lose their texture. Simmer them gently until tender but still hold their shape.
  • Add Veggies for Extra Flavor: Incorporate vegetables like chopped onion, bell pepper, or corn into the baked beans for added flavor and nutrition.
  • Experiment with Different Miso Pastes: Try different types of miso paste, such as white, yellow, or red miso, to achieve various flavor profiles.
  • Serve with Accompaniments: Elevate your baked beans by serving them with accompaniments like crusty bread, roasted potatoes, or a fresh green salad.
