A quick and easy sheet pan recipe featuring tender salmon glazed with a sweet and savory honey garlic sauce, roasted alongside crisp broccoli for a wholesome and delicious dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz / 170 g each), skin-on or skinless
  • 4 cups broccoli florets (about 300 g)
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, and black pepper. Add red pepper flakes if using.
  3. Cut broccoli into bite-sized florets and pat dry with a kitchen towel.
  4. Spread broccoli in a single layer on one side of a rimmed sheet pan. Drizzle lightly with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Toss gently to coat.
  5. Place salmon fillets on the other side of the pan, skin-side down if applicable, leaving space between each piece.
  6. Brush the honey garlic glaze generously over the salmon and drizzle any remaining glaze over the broccoli.
  7. Roast in the oven for 15-18 minutes until salmon flakes easily with a fork and broccoli edges are golden and slightly crisp. Optionally broil for 1-2 minutes for more char on broccoli.
  8. Remove from oven and let rest for 3 minutes to allow juices to redistribute and glaze to set.
  9. Serve immediately with an extra lemon wedge if desired.

Notes

Pat salmon dry before glazing to help sauce stick and prevent steaming. Let salmon come to room temperature for 15 minutes before baking for even cooking. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure proper roasting. If broccoli looks dry before roasting, toss with an extra teaspoon of olive oil. Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra char if desired. Leftovers store well refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheat best in oven or skillet to retain crispness.
