A quick and easy sheet pan dinner featuring salmon fillets glazed with a sweet and savory honey garlic sauce, roasted alongside fresh vegetables for a healthy, flavorful meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 skin-on salmon fillets (6 oz / 170 g each)
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons honey (preferably raw or local)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup baby carrots
  • 1 cup snap peas or green beans
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional: red pepper flakes for heat
  • Optional: sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and position the oven rack in the center.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, and lemon juice until smooth and glossy.
  3. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  4. Spread broccoli florets, baby carrots, and snap peas or green beans on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss gently to coat evenly.
  5. Roast the vegetables in the oven for 10 minutes to start softening and caramelizing.
  6. Remove the pan from the oven and arrange the salmon fillets skin-side down among the vegetables.
  7. Brush each salmon fillet generously with the honey garlic glaze, coating skin and flesh well.
  8. Return the pan to the oven and roast everything together for 12-15 minutes, until salmon is opaque and flakes easily, and vegetables are tender and lightly caramelized.
  9. Optional: Sprinkle red pepper flakes or sesame seeds over the salmon for garnish.
  10. Let the dish rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.

Notes

Use skin-on salmon for crispier texture and moist fish. Pat salmon skin dry before roasting. Start roasting veggies first to ensure even cooking. Keep an eye on the glaze to prevent burning. Let salmon rest a few minutes before serving. For gluten-free, substitute soy sauce with tamari. Optional garnishes include red pepper flakes or sesame seeds. Leftovers keep well for up to 2 days in the fridge; reheat gently to avoid drying out.
