Description
This recipe features flaky salmon fillets and tender-crisp vegetables all roasted on a single sheet pan, coated in a savory homemade teriyaki sauce. It’s a quick, healthy, and easy weeknight meal with minimal cleanup.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 pounds salmon fillets, skin on or off
- 1 head of broccoli, cut into florets
- 2 bell peppers (any color), seeded and sliced
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- For the Teriyaki Sauce:
- 1/2 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (slurry)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey (or maple syrup), grated ginger, minced garlic, and sesame oil for the teriyaki sauce. Set aside half of the sauce for serving.
- In a large bowl, combine the broccoli florets, bell pepper slices, and red onion wedges. Drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Place the salmon fillets among the vegetables on the baking sheet.
- Brush the remaining teriyaki sauce over the salmon fillets and vegetables.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, and the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- If desired, broil for the last 2-3 minutes to get a nice char on the vegetables and salmon.
- Serve immediately with the reserved teriyaki sauce.
Notes
- You can customize the vegetables to your liking. Other good options include asparagus, snap peas, or carrots.
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the teriyaki sauce.
- Serve over rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
