Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 1 1/2 lbs), skin-on or off
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 large bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 red onion, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for veggies)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (or fresh thyme)
  • Fresh chopped parsley (optional garnish)
  • Lemon wedges (optional garnish)
  • Sesame seeds (optional garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or foil.
  2. Slice bell pepper and zucchini, halve cherry tomatoes, cut broccoli into florets, and slice red onion. Toss veggies with 2 tablespoons olive oil, Italian herbs, salt, and pepper. Spread evenly on one half of the sheet pan.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce (or tamari), olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using.
  4. Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the other half of the pan. Pour glaze evenly over each fillet, spooning extra over the sides.
  5. Roast for 15-18 minutes, until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and veggies are tender and starting to brown. For extra caramelization, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end.
  6. Check for doneness: salmon should reach 145°F internal temperature; veggies should be fork-tender and lightly charred. If salmon finishes early, remove and let veggies cook 3-5 more minutes.
  7. Transfer salmon and veggies to plates. Garnish with fresh parsley, lemon wedges, and sesame seeds if desired. Drizzle extra pan juices over everything.

Notes

For best results, use fresh garlic and good-quality salmon. Don’t overcrowd the pan—spread veggies out for even roasting. If using frozen salmon, thaw and pat dry before glazing. Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra caramelization, but watch closely to avoid burning. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days; reheat gently to keep salmon moist. For gluten-free, use tamari instead of soy sauce. Swap veggies based on season or preference.
