Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Peel and cube the sweet potato into 1-inch pieces. Toss the cubes with half of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Spread them evenly on the baking sheet.
Roast the sweet potatoes in the oven for about 20-25 minutes, until tender and slightly crispy on the edges.
While the potatoes roast, prepare the salmon. In a small bowl, mix the maple syrup, remaining olive oil, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the salmon fillet on a separate, lightly greased baking dish or section of the baking sheet. Brush the maple glaze generously over the salmon.
After the sweet potatoes have roasted for about 20 minutes, add the salmon to the oven and continue roasting together for an additional 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily.
Meanwhile, steam or lightly sauté the broccoli until bright green and tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
Plate the maple-glazed salmon with a serving of roasted sweet potatoes and broccoli. Drizzle any remaining glaze from the salmon over the dish for extra flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy your balanced, nutrient-packed meal.
