Prep

  1. 01

    Mince 2 cloves garlic.

  2. 02

    Cut 2 medium sweet potatoes into 3/4-inch wedges.

Method

  1. 01

    Preheat oven to 425°F.

  2. 02

    Cut sweet potatoes into 3/4-inch wedges and toss with 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread on a large sheet pan and roast for 15 minutes.

  3. 03

    While potatoes roast, whisk together harissa paste, honey, minced garlic, and 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil in a small bowl.

  4. 04

    Remove sheet pan from oven. Push sweet potato wedges to the sides and arrange salmon fillets skin-side down in the center. Brush harissa glaze over the salmon.

  5. 05

    Roast for 12–14 minutes, until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and sweet potatoes are tender and lightly charred at the edges.

  6. 06

    Divide between plates and finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

Harissa adds warming spice and depth without much heat—use less if you prefer mild, or swap for Dijon mustard for a tangy version. Leftovers keep refrigerated for up to 3 days.
