A quick and healthy sheet pan recipe featuring tender teriyaki-glazed salmon and caramelized roasted vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets, skin-on preferred
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup baby carrots, sliced lengthwise
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced into strips
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
  • 2 stalks green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and rice vinegar. Set aside about 2 tablespoons of this glaze for drizzling later.
  3. Place the salmon fillets skin-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the teriyaki glaze generously over each fillet. Let marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  4. In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets, sliced baby carrots, and red bell pepper strips with olive oil, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
  5. Arrange the veggies evenly around the salmon on the sheet pan in a single layer. If the pan is too crowded, split the veggies between two pans.
  6. Roast in the oven on the middle rack for 15-18 minutes, until the salmon flakes easily with a fork and the veggies are tender with slightly crispy edges.
  7. Remove from oven and brush the reserved teriyaki glaze over the salmon and veggies. Sprinkle sesame seeds and sliced green onions on top.
  8. Serve immediately, carefully lifting the salmon fillets with a spatula and plating alongside the roasted veggies.

Notes

Marinate salmon for about 10 minutes to soak in flavor without mushiness. Use skin-on salmon for crispy texture and moisture retention. Avoid overcrowding the pan to prevent soggy veggies. Check salmon doneness at 15 minutes to avoid overcooking. Brushing reserved glaze after roasting gives a shiny, sticky finish. Line the pan for easy cleanup.
