A quick and easy sheet pan recipe featuring honey garlic glazed salmon and roasted vegetables, perfect for busy weeknights and packed with flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 salmon fillets (about 6 oz / 170 g each), skin-on or skinless
  • 3 tablespoons honey (raw, local preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (low sodium if preferred)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for glaze)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 cups broccoli florets (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for vegetables)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs or a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, lemon juice, and olive oil to make the glaze. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, toss zucchini, bell pepper, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and broccoli with olive oil, salt, pepper, and optional Italian herbs or red pepper flakes until evenly coated.
  4. Spread the vegetables in a single layer on one side of the prepared sheet pan.
  5. Arrange the salmon fillets on the other side of the pan, skin side down if applicable, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  6. Brush the honey garlic glaze generously over each salmon fillet, including the edges.
  7. Roast in the oven for 12–15 minutes, until vegetables are tender and slightly browned and salmon flakes easily with a fork.
  8. Optional: Broil for the last 2 minutes for a caramelized finish, watching carefully to avoid burning.
  9. Serve immediately, plating salmon alongside roasted vegetables and drizzling any pan juices over the top.

Notes

If vegetables brown too quickly, loosely cover the pan with foil halfway through roasting. Use tamari or coconut aminos for gluten-free soy sauce alternatives. Honey can be swapped with maple syrup or agave for vegan glaze. Use an instant-read thermometer to check salmon doneness at 125°F (52°C). Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 2 days and reheat gently.
