A quick and easy sheet pan dinner featuring crispy skin salmon glazed with a homemade teriyaki sauce, roasted alongside fresh veggies for a flavorful and fuss-free weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets, about 6 oz (170 g) each, skin on
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (about 150 g), fresh or frozen
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large carrot, peeled and sliced thin
  • 2 green onions, sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup (60 ml) low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for vegan option)
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, rice vinegar, and sesame oil (if using).
  3. In a small cup, mix cornstarch with water until smooth. Stir this slurry into the teriyaki glaze mixture and set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, combine broccoli florets, sliced red bell pepper, and thinly sliced carrot. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season lightly with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  5. Spread the veggies in a single layer on one side of the baking sheet, leaving space for the salmon.
  6. Pat dry the salmon fillets with paper towels. Place skin-side down on the empty side of the baking sheet. Brush each fillet generously with the teriyaki glaze, reserving some glaze for later.
  7. Roast in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Brush the salmon again with the reserved glaze and continue roasting for another 5-7 minutes until salmon is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the skin is crispy.
  8. Check the veggies; if needed, broil for an additional 3-4 minutes while watching carefully to caramelize.
  9. Remove from oven and sprinkle salmon and veggies with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
  10. Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice or cauliflower rice.

Notes

Pat salmon dry before glazing to ensure crispy skin. Do not overcrowd the pan to allow proper roasting. Double brush the glaze for a sticky, flavorful coating. Adjust roasting times for thicker fillets. Broil veggies briefly if needed for caramelization. Leftovers reheat best in a skillet to maintain crispiness.
