With minimal effort, you'll have perfectly cooked salmon and perfectly tender-crisp broccoli, all bathed in an irresistible sticky, savory-sweet sauce. It’s simple, healthy, and unbelievably tasty!

Ingredients

Yield: 4 servings

For the Glaze

  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger (optional but recommended)

Main

  • 4 (6 oz) salmon fillets, skin on or off
  • 1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets (about 4-5 cups)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

  2. Step 2

    In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, soy sauce, 1 tbsp olive oil, minced garlic, and ginger (if using) for the glaze. Set aside.

  3. Step 3

    On the prepared baking sheet, toss the broccoli florets with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, and pepper until lightly coated. Spread them in a single layer.

  4. Step 4

    Place the salmon fillets among the broccoli on the baking sheet. Pat salmon dry with paper towels.

  5. Step 5

    Spoon about half of the honey garlic glaze over the salmon fillets and broccoli. Ensure both are well coated.

  6. Step 6

    Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and broccoli is tender-crisp. If you have a thicker salmon, it may take a few minutes longer.

  7. Step 7

    Remove from oven, drizzle with remaining glaze, and garnish with sesame seeds, if desired. Serve immediately.

Tips

  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet! If you have too many ingredients, use two sheets for even cooking.
  • You can add other quick-cooking vegetables like bell peppers or thin-sliced zucchini to the pan.
