Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz / 170 g each), skin-on or skinless
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (150 g)
  • 1 cup baby carrots (120 g) or sliced regular carrots
  • 1 cup baby potatoes, halved (150 g)
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 3 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin preferred)
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley or green onions

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated fresh ginger, and fresh lemon juice until smooth to make the honey garlic glaze.
  3. In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets, baby carrots, halved baby potatoes, and sliced red bell pepper with 2 tablespoons olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.
  4. Spread the vegetables out in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet.
  5. Place the salmon fillets on top of the vegetables, skin-side down if applicable.
  6. Brush the honey garlic glaze generously over the salmon and drizzle some over the vegetables. Reserve some glaze for later.
  7. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil around the pan for extra crispiness on the veggies.
  8. Roast in the oven for 18-20 minutes until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the vegetables are tender and caramelized.
  9. Optional: Halfway through roasting, brush the salmon with the reserved glaze for extra flavor and shine.
  10. Remove from oven and let rest for 3-5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute and glaze to set.
  11. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

If salmon fillets are thicker than 1 inch (2.5 cm), add a few extra minutes to roasting time. For thinner fillets, check earlier to avoid overcooking. Use fresh garlic and ginger for best flavor. Let salmon rest after roasting for juicier texture. Optional broil for 2-3 minutes for crispier vegetables. Can substitute soy sauce with tamari for gluten-free version and honey with maple syrup if needed. Avoid overcrowding pan to ensure vegetables roast properly.
