Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400°F. In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp honey, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp grated ginger until combined and fragrant. Place 4 salmon fillets on a lined baking sheet and brush generously with the honey-soy glaze. Bake for 12-15 minutes until salmon is cooked through and glaze is caramelized.
  2. Step 2: While the salmon bakes, heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil and 2 tbsp sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 cups broccoli florets and stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
  3. Step 3: Remove broccoli from heat and toss with 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds and 2 sliced green onions for a nutty aroma and fresh finish. Serve the glazed salmon over the sesame broccoli, spooning any extra glaze from the pan over the top.
