Easy Sheet Pan Honey Garlic Salmon and Broccoli

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs salmon fillets (4 portions, about 6 oz each)
• 1/4 cup honey
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1.5 lbs fresh broccoli (2 large heads)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
• 2 green onions, sliced (optional)

Instructions

1. Make the glaze: In a small saucepan, whisk together honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Simmer for 3-4 minutes until slightly thickened. Set aside.
2. Prep oven and pan: Preheat oven to 425°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Prepare broccoli: Cut broccoli into uniform florets. Toss with olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Arrange on one half of the baking sheet.
4. Season salmon: Pat salmon dry and season with remaining salt and pepper. Place skin-side down on the other half of the baking sheet.
5. Glaze everything: Brush 2/3 of the glaze over the salmon. Drizzle remaining glaze over broccoli and toss lightly.
6. Roast: Bake for 8 minutes, then remove and toss broccoli. Return to oven for 10-12 minutes more, until salmon flakes easily.
7. Finish and serve: Broil for 2-3 minutes for caramelized finish. Let rest 5 minutes, garnish with sesame seeds and green onions, and serve.
