All You Had to Do Was Stay Miso-Maple Salmon

"Create a 20–25 minute sheet-pan dinner called All You Had to Do Was Stay Miso-Maple Salmon with Sesame Snap Peas, inspired by Taylor Swift’s ‘All You Had to Do Was Stay.’ Vibe: catchy, shiny, decisive—sticky glaze that clings, greens that keep their crunch.Core: 4 salmon fillets (skin-on, ~6 oz each); kosher salt; black pepper.Glaze (‘stay’): white miso paste, pure maple syrup, soy sauce or tamari, rice vinegar, grated fresh ginger, minced garlic, a few drops sesame oil, pinch red pepper flakes (optional).Veg: sugar snap peas (or green beans), thin carrot matchsticks; olive oil; pinch salt.Method: heat oven to 425°F. Whisk glaze. Toss snap peas + carrots with a little oil and salt on a rimmed sheet; push to sides. Pat salmon dry; season; spoon most glaze over tops. Roast 10–12 min (to 125–130°F for medium; adjust to preference). Brush with remaining glaze; broil 1–2 min for shine (watch close).Serve: over hot rice or quinoa; shower with sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds; lime wedges on the side.Include: yield 4; total time ~25 min; exact ingredient amounts (cups/grams); step-by-step; doneness cues (flakes with gentle press, temp guide); pan-lining tip (foil/parchment for easy cleanup).Swaps: GF (tamari), DF by default; veg option (roast tofu slabs brushed with same glaze—press, cornstarch dust, roast 20–25 min); veggie swap (broccoli florets); extra heat (add a little sriracha). Air-fryer directions: 390°F, salmon 7–9 min (glaze at start; broil step not needed).Make-ahead: whisk glaze up to 3 days in advance.Plating: glossy ruby-gold salmon with bright green ‘woods’ of snap peas and sesame confetti—clean, catchy, totally home-kitchen accessible"
