A quick and healthy sheet pan dinner featuring salmon glazed with a sticky honey garlic sauce, roasted alongside fresh vegetables, ready in under 30 minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz / 170 g each), skin-on or off
  • ⅓ cup (113 g) honey
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons (45 ml) soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon (15 ml) olive oil (for roasting)
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 cups (150 g) broccoli florets
  • 1 cup (130 g) baby carrots or sliced regular carrots
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 small red onion, sliced into wedges
  • 1–2 tablespoons (15–30 ml) olive oil (to toss veggies)
  • Salt, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes if using. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, toss broccoli florets, baby carrots, sliced red bell pepper, and sliced red onion with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Spread evenly on one half of the sheet pan.
  4. Place salmon fillets skin-side down on the other half of the sheet pan. Season lightly with black pepper.
  5. Brush the honey garlic glaze generously over each salmon fillet, coating tops and sides. Reserve some glaze for drizzling after baking.
  6. Roast in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until salmon flakes easily and glaze is caramelized.
  7. Optional: Broil salmon for 1-2 minutes at the end for extra caramelization, watching carefully to prevent burning.
  8. Remove from oven, drizzle reserved glaze over salmon, and let rest for 2 minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not overbake the salmon to keep it tender and silky. Warm honey before mixing for smooth glaze. Rotate the pan halfway through cooking for even roasting. Use skin-on salmon to keep fish moist. Leftovers keep well for up to 3 days refrigerated. For gluten-free, substitute soy sauce with tamari.
