Instructions
Preheat & prep:
Preheat oven to 425 °F (220 °C).
Line a rimmed sheet pan with parchment paper.
Season & arrange:
On one side of the pan, toss broccoli with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread in a single layer.
Place salmon filets on the other side, skin-side down if applicable; pat lightly with salt and pepper.
Whisk the glaze:
In a small bowl, whisk soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic until smooth.
Glaze & roast:
Brush half the glaze over each salmon filet.
Roast in the center of the oven for 7–8 minutes.
Remove pan, brush salmon (and broccoli edges) with remaining glaze, then return to oven 8–10 minutes more, until salmon flakes easily and broccoli edges are crisp-tender.
Finish & serve:
Transfer to plates or leave on the sheet pan for family-style.
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onion. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over the top.
Notes
Hints, Tips & Substitutions
Vegetable swap: Substitute asparagus, green beans, or Brussels sprouts for broccoli.
Make-ahead: Whisk glaze and trim broccoli up to 2 days ahead; store separately in the fridge.
Extra heat: Add a pinch of red-pepper flakes to the glaze or a drizzle of Sriracha at the end.
Skin-on option: Keeps salmon extra moist—simply slide a spatula under the filet to lift it from the skin when eating.
Low-sodium: Swap soy sauce for tamari or coconut-aminos, and reduce added salt.
