Ingredients
12 oz. Salmon Fillets
8 oz. Brussels Sprouts
8 oz. Yukon Potatoes
1.32 oz. Mayonnaise
1 fl. oz. Balsamic Fig Glaze
1 oz. Butter
½ oz. Roasted Sliced Almonds
6 Chive Sprigs
0.14 oz. Lemon Juice
How to make it
1
Step 1
Halve the potatoes. Toss on a prepared baking sheet with 2 tsp. olive oil and 1/4 tsp. salt; spread into a single layer. Roast at 425°F until tender and browned, 10-12 minutes. Continue with the recipe while the potatoes roast.
2
Step 2
Coarsely crush the almonds. Trim the stems off the Brussels sprouts and halve vertically (quarter any larger than a ping-pong ball). Toss in a bowl with 2 tsp. olive oil, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Mince the chives. Pat the salmon dry and season the flesh side with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper.
3
Step 3
After 10-12 minutes, remove the potatoes from the oven and push to one side of the baking sheet. Spread the Brussels sprouts on the empty side, cut-side down. Roast until tender and browned, 14-16 minutes. Remove from the oven. Continue with the recipe while the vegetables finish roasting.

Step 4
Place a medium nonstick pan over medium heat. Add the butter and stir occasionally until it smells nutty, turns golden, and brown flecks appear, 4-6 minutes. Stir in the chives and remove from heat. Transfer to a bowl; stir in the mayonnaise and lemon juice until combined. Reserve the pan, no need to wipe clean.
5
Step 5
Return the pan to medium heat. Toast the almonds dry, stirring, until golden-brown and fragrant, 30-60 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Wipe the pan clean and return to medium heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and the salmon skin-side up. Sear until golden-brown and the salmon reaches 145°F, 4-6 minutes per side. Plate the potatoes, Brussels sprouts, and salmon. Spoon the brown butter sauce over the salmon, drizzle balsamic glaze over the Brussels sprouts, and scatter the almonds on top.
