Barbecue-Glazed Salmon with Green Beans and Corn

Serves 4
Hands-on Time: 20m
Total Time: 20m

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 3/4 pound green beans, cut into 1 1⁄2-inch lengths
• 4 scallions, white and green parts separated and thinly sliced
• kosher salt and black pepper
• 1 cup frozen corn
• 1 1/4 pounds skinless salmon fillet, cut into 4 pieces
• 1/4 cup barbecue sauce
• 1/4 cup torn fresh basil leaves

Directions

1. Set an oven rack in the highest position and heat oven to 500° F.

2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the green beans, scallion whites, ½ teaspoon salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cook, tossing frequently, until the green beans begin to soften, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the corn and cook, tossing  frequently, until the vegetables are tender, 3 to 4 minutes more. Fold in the scallion greens.

3. Meanwhile, place the salmon on a foil-lined baking sheet and season with ¼ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Dividing evenly, brush with the barbecue sauce. Bake until cooked through, 8 to 12 minutes.

4. Serve the salmon with the vegetables and sprinkle with the basil.

Tip

Fresh corn at your market? Use it here in place of frozen. Two ears will give you about 1 cup of kernels.
