In a small bowl, combine maple syrup, soy sauce, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is well combined. This will be your glaze.
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down in the skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, then carefully flip and cook for another 3 minutes. Remove the salmon from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining olive oil and the shrimp. Season shrimp lightly with salt and pepper. Cook for 2 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
Lower the heat to medium-low. Add the butter to the skillet and pour in the prepared maple glaze. Stir and simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the glaze to slightly thicken.
Return the salmon fillets to the skillet and spoon the glaze over each piece. Let them cook for another 2 minutes, ensuring they're fully coated in the glaze.
Add the cooked shrimp back into the skillet and gently toss them in the glaze to coat them evenly.
Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the salmon and shrimp, then sprinkle with chopped parsley.
Serve the maple-glazed salmon and shrimp hot, with your choice of sides like steamed vegetables or rice.
