Sheet pan suppers are the newest trend for easy weeknight meals, and for good reason. Besides having incredibly easy clean up, each ingredient flavours the others as they cook side-by-side, and you’re left with unbelievable bursts of flavour in every single bite. Sheet pan miso salmon with bok choy and sweet potatoes in no exception.
Sheet pan miso salmon with bok choy and sweet potatoes is a total home run. It sounds complicated, but if you can get your hands on some miso paste or miso marinade, dinner will be on the table in less than 30 minutes. Like, from start to finish. The salmon doesn’t need to sit in the marinade for hours on end (though you could if you were planning ahead). It adds this lovely umami flavour that, in turn, makes all the vegetables taste amazing as well.
Top everything with plain or toasted sesame seeds, lots of cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice, and you will instantly be a believer in sheet pan meals. Healthy and good looking?! I can definitely get behind that.

I bought a bottle of miso a couple months ago, and it's still sitting in the pantry unopened because I keep forgetting about it. This recipe is making me get it out right now so I can use it in a meal!
