Notes
- Instead of maple syrup, you can use agave nectar or honey.
- Feel free to use different proteins like chicken breasts, chicken thighs, wings, shrimp, tilapia, crispy tofu, etc.
- Use asparagus, Brussels sprouts, broccolini, or your choice of green veggie in place of the fresh green beans.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Reheat the leftovers in the microwave on a microwaveable plate or in the oven on a sheet pan.
- Make homemade salmon patties with your leftover salmon filets.
