Description
A delicious and healthy sheet pan recipe featuring salmon and broccoli, flavored with Asian-inspired ingredients.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1.50 pound skin-on salmon fillet
- 3 cups broccoli florets
- 3 to 4 tablespoons honey
- 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium lite soy sauce (use certified GF if this is important to you)
- 3 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce (adjust for heat preference)
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar (substitute with another vinegar if necessary)
- Fresh cilantro, optional for garnishing
- Salt and pepper, to taste, optional
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F (use convection if available), line a baking sheet with aluminum foil for easier cleanup, and spray with cooking spray. Place the salmon skin-side down on the baking sheet and nestle the broccoli directly around it, evenly spaced.
- In a small bowl, mix all remaining ingredients (except cilantro) and spoon most of the mixture over the salmon, dotting the broccoli with just a little sauce.
- Bake at 375F for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the salmon is nearly done.
- Turn the broiler to high and broil for 3 to 5 minutes to finish cooking.
- Alternatively, continue baking the salmon for a few extra minutes if not broiling, but avoid overcooking.
- Garnish with cilantro, add salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Ensure you do not overcook the salmon to keep it moist.
- Broccoli will absorb runoff sauce from the salmon, so no need for excessive saucing.
- Feel free to adjust the spice level by reducing the chili garlic sauce.
