Ingredients
Scale
- 2 boneless, skin-on salmon fillets (6–8 ounces each)
- 1 medium head of fresh broccoli, cut into bite-sized florets
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- 2 tablespoons of low-sodium soy sauce
- 3–4 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Optional: sesame seeds for garnish
- Optional: sliced green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Spread the broccoli florets on the baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat and roast for 10-12 minutes.
- While the broccoli roasts, pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons of honey, 2 tablespoons of low-sodium soy sauce, and the minced garlic until well combined.
- After the broccoli has roasted, push it to one side of the baking sheet and place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the empty side. Brush two-thirds of the honey garlic glaze over the salmon.
- Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for another 12-15 minutes, or until the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) and the broccoli is tender-crisp.
- Once cooked, brush the remaining honey garlic glaze over the salmon and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired. Serve immediately.
