A quick and easy sheet pan recipe featuring flaky honey garlic glazed salmon and perfectly roasted vegetables, ideal for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (6 oz / 170 g each), skin-on or skinless
  • 3 tablespoons honey (raw or regular)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced fresh
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (about 150 g)
  • 1 cup baby carrots (about 130 g), washed and trimmed
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into rounds (or yellow squash)
  • Optional garnish: fresh chopped parsley or chives

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet (at least 12 x 17 inches) with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, and fresh lemon juice until well combined and glossy.
  3. Toss broccoli florets, baby carrots, bell pepper slices, and zucchini rounds with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the vegetables on one side of the prepared sheet pan in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding.
  5. Place the salmon fillets on the other side of the pan, skin side down if skin-on. Pat dry lightly with a paper towel.
  6. Brush the honey garlic glaze generously over the salmon fillets. Drizzle any extra glaze over the vegetables for added flavor.
  7. Roast in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until the salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender with golden edges.
  8. Optional: Broil for 1-2 minutes at the end for a slightly crispier top, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  9. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh chopped parsley or chives if desired.

Notes

Pat salmon dry before glazing to ensure a caramelized finish. Avoid overcrowding vegetables to prevent steaming. Fresh garlic and quality honey enhance flavor. For gluten-free, use tamari or coconut aminos instead of soy sauce. Let salmon rest a few minutes after roasting for best flavor. Leftovers keep up to 2 days refrigerated; reheat gently in oven.
